Honoring Community
The Deputy Adjutant
General of Veterans
Affairs, BG Jerry Beck,
tested a FindMyRidePA
kiosk with rabbittransit
Executive Director Rich
Farr. The initiative is in
cooperation with PennDOT and allows veterans and their families to
identify transportation
options and book a ride
through the website or
one of 6 kiosks in York
County.
The support of the Adams County Community
has been incredibly valuable this year and
rabbittransit would like to thank the efforts of a
long list of sponsors for their generosity.
Among these supporters, is an individual who led
the charge for several years in the early stages of
Freedom Transit. Without his contribution, the
continuation of
the Blue Line
would not have
been possible.
rabbittransit
recognized David
Sites at the Feb.
12th Chamber
meeting for his
generous support.
