      <image:caption>The Board of Directors established the Bill Dane Award in 1995, in recognition of William R. Dane’s contribution to Paratransit Services. During his 5 years of employment, until he retired at the age of 85. Bill Dane was recognized as an “Ambassador” of Paratransit Services. He is well remembered by those who worked with and knew him for his, exemplary performance, professional demeanor, dedication, and for the songs he sang regularly to his passengers. Dan Woods has been with Paratransit Services for six years and eight months as an on-call driver. However, his is stellar personality and “can do” attitude have not gone unnoticed. He is always asking how he can help and if there is anything we need. He always goes above and beyond to explain different processes to other drivers and clients when they are on the bus. He truly exemplifies everything this award stands for. General Manager, Sheila Harmon, had this to share about Mr. Woods:</image:caption>

He shows up every day prepared to take on any challenge that he may face. Daryl Baker had this to say about Troy: “Troy works on maintaining all of our vehicles and anything else we need him to do. The preventive maintenance is always done on time and he plans everything so that everything is well organized. The shop is always immaculate and very tidy. I have complete trust in him to get the job done. When I get there a few hours after him and I ask him to do something, he always tells me that it is already done. You can't get much faster than that!” The awards ceremony was held at our Red Bluff office in California. President/CEO David Baker presented the award in front of a gathering of Troy’s fellow staff members. Also in attendance was General Manager Sharon Young, who nominated Troy for his outstanding commitment to our company and the communities we so proudly serve.
