TOLEDO, OH - AAA is announcing a sweepstakes to honor seniors in Toledo.  ‘Round Town to You is seeking nominations for seniors or groups in the area that deserve a special day of surprises. Three lucky winners in the Toledo area will be chosen for a day personalized just for them. They will not need to leave the comfort of their homes to receive their prize. The sweepstakes comes in advance of “AAA ‘Round Town”, a new transportation service for seniors that will launch in the Toledo area. Nominations for ‘Round Town to You can be made online at AAAroundtown.com through October 15th, 2020.

AAA ‘Round Town, powered by SHARE Mobility, is a 3-month pilot service coming soon to the Toledo area. During the pilot, the service will provide rides to seniors, at no cost, to popular destinations, like restaurants, grocery stores, parks, and shopping centers. Members and non-members will be invited to participate. The launch date of the service is still to be determined and is dependent on COVID-19 guidance.

SHARE Mobility CEO, Ryan McManus said, “This sweepstakes is a way for us to start talking about the upcoming service in Toledo. We hope this gives people something to look forward to during COVID-19. Our team has planned some really fun experiences. This is just another way we get to express our mission and serve seniors with transportation they can trust.”

“AAA is dedicated to promoting safe and viable transportation options for seniors,” said Edgar Avila, Executive Vice President, AAA Northwest Ohio. “‘Round Town to You is an exciting start as we look forward to the future launch of AAA ‘Round Town in the Toledo area."

As we hope to launch the service soon, AAA ‘Round Town community members can go to AAARoundTown.com to nominate a senior or group of seniors to win a ‘Round Town to You day.  Winners will receive a curated day of surprises bringing the best of Toledo right to them. Entrants may nominate friends, family, couples, or groups of people aged 65 or older. Entrants may nominate themselves. The final number of winners and their respective prizes will be selected at the discretion of AAA ‘Round Town.
