Program
Smart Driver Course

8:30 a.m.-12:30 p.m., CCW
Purchase your $17 ticket online or
at the Member Services Office
TheAARPDriver Safety programoffers the
nation’s first and largest refresher course
designed specifically for older drivers.
The program consists of one (1) four-hour
session and costs $17. The course helps
drivers refine existing skills and develop
safe defensive driving techniques. Both
AARP members and non-members may
take the course.
Non-members must pay an extra $5
at the door. Members must bring
their AARP card to avoid additional
charges.
Upon completion of the course, graduates
MAY receive a discount on their automo-
bile insurance premiums. Please check
with your auto insurance carrier to see
what discount, if any, will apply.
AARP courses do not qualify for ticket
dismissal in Texas unless you have pre-
viously contacted the appropriate court
and received approval to take this course
in lieu of a Defensive Driving Course.
Remember to bring your driver’s li-
cense, AARP card and the ticket you
purchased at the Member Services
Office or online.

Donations are always welcome, but donat-
ing large amounts of books at once puts a
huge strain on the Library storage system.
Please donate only as much as you can
easily carry each time you visit. Guidelines
for donations are posted in the Library and
occasionally feature information on what
types of materials we can use. If you have
questions about donating books, please call
or e-mail Nancy Davis.
