Veterans in La Paz County who need a ride to their hospital appointments at the Phoenix VA hospital can take advantage of a free service from the Disabled American Veterans (DAV) chapter in Lake Havasu. The DAV has been operating a shuttle service from Lake Havasu to Phoe- nix VA for many years. Stops are along SR 95 and include Parker Dam, Parker, Quartzsite and Vicksburg Road and I-10. To take advantage of this service, you must have an appointment at the hospital prior to calling the DAV and it must be a morning appointment. The van runs every Monday and Wednesday. Due to legal issues raised ear- lier this year, DAV can no longer take veterans to "off-site" appointments into the city of Phoenix. This is a statewide decision, not a local one. Anyone wishing to make an appointment, or has further questions, please call the DAV offi ce at 928-855-0356 between the hours of 9:30 AM and 1 PM on weekdays, or call anytime and leave a message on voicemail.
