Learning about public transportation on the Bay Town Trolley

Wednesday June 17, 2009 the Summer Transition students had an exciting day learning about the basics of public transportation. Bay Town Trolley Ambassador Matt Zebroski spent the day with the group as we rode the trolley from Pier Park on the beach, switched trolleys at Gulf Coast Community College, at lunch at the delicious Lunch Box, and then rode the trolley back out to the beach. Matt stressed the importance of planning out your route to ensure you make it to any appointments on time and don't miss any transfer trolleys. He also discussed how each student could attend their local city or county meetings to voice their opinions or request additional services, such as public transportation, in their own community.
