The Daily Five

Start off back-to-school week with these top five facts for Monday, Aug. 15.

1. CORP's Neighborhood Driving Neighbor program matches volunteers with older adults living nearby, needing rides for medical appointments. Volunteers use their own cars for rides that are scheduled five days in advance and are free of charge for the senior. To learn more about volunteer openings, call CORP at 314-615-4516 or email tlabovitz@stlouisco.com.

2. The City of Sunset Hills is selling Six Flags tickets at a discounted rate. Daily tickets are $30 and season passes are $57. Since the park is open until October, there is still plenty time for multiple visits! Tickets are sold only in the Park Administration Office from 9 a.m.-4 p.m.
