The Musical Instrument Museum (MIM) on Wednesday, Feb. 6, is the destination of the next “new adventure” organized by Senior Services, Inc. (SSI) and the Town of Fountain Hills.
Participants will receive the group rate advantage for tickets and free transportation on a luxury charter bus provided by Senior Services, Inc.
Transportation has been identified as a major concern for seniors in Fountain Hills. There are many opportunities for recreation and education in our larger metropolitan area, but driving to these events can be a deterrent to some seniors. SSI hopes that providing quality transportation will allow more Fountain Hills residents take advantage of these opportunities.

The MIM event is the second of three for this winter season. The Feb. 6event includes a docent-led tour and free time for the group rate cost of $20 per ticket. Lunch is on your own. The MIM café is available with affordable menu options.
Reservations can be made and tickets can be purchased through AZ Trails Travel at 480-837-8665 or in person at 16550 E. Palisades Blvd., Fountain Hills. Ask for Neda. More information is also available at the Community Center.
The bus will board at the Community Center at 9:30 a.m. on Wednesday, Feb. 6 with a 10 a.m. departure, and will return at 4 p.m.
This service is intended for residents of Fountain Hills who are 50+ years old, and winter visitors are welcome. All passengers must be able to get on and off the bus independently. Walkers are welcome. While quite a bit of walking is involved at the museum, adequate seating is available for resting. The bus can accommodate 48 passengers, so please make your reservations as soon as possible.
The third event this year will be a trip to Gammage in Tempe to see “Wicked” in early April. Arrangements will be announced in the February Community Center Newsletter.
