While a 10th anniversary tends to make events in the rear-view mirror appear closer than they actually are, Trans-County Transportation Society (TCTS) is keeping its eyes on the road ahead.

"To be honest I can't even find a word to describe how this feels," says executive director Debbie Decker reaching to describe her pride at reaching the milestone. "In 2004 there was nothing, we were on the brink. Some days I look at what we have, and I'm just amazed. In such a short time we have grown so much... To see it come back to life... I'm very, very proud of this organization. I love it like my own."

TCTS began as a volunteer organization in 1999. When Decker joined in October of 2004, however, she quickly came to the disheartening conclusion that the cupboards were bare. "We had two aging vehicles: a minivan and a minibus, but you could never be sure thy were going to start in the morning. And, the fee for a trip was less than what it cost us in gas. As I went through the financials it was clear that we were already coming to the end of our funding for that year. I mean, we were days from closing the doors."
