Ride the Comet: Workshop

Ride the Comet Workshop
by Cola City Homeschoolers/Let Grow Club
Friday, January 26 from 1-3pm
Free — Ages 12+

Note: This is a Cola City activity as part of the Let Grow Club initiatives to develop agency and autonomy. Scroll down to register (space is limited).

Space is limited, so we will have to prioritize teens (ages 12+) for this event. We hope to schedule another follow-up–with or without the city/community co-ordinator. If you have younger siblings, you can sign up just your teen participant to be chaperoned/accompanied by Cola City.

This is a great opportunity for learning about how to read the bus routes and plan out your own adventure. It’s important to know the transportation options that are available in our area. You may have to save up for a car, have car trouble, lose your ability to drive, want to save gas money or just not have the patience to deal with parking and traffic. 

It’s also important to remember that if something happens to your car, bicycle or you can’t afford Uber, Lyft or Taxi, your employer, your doctor, and others will expect you to find another way and show up.

ITINERARY: Meet at 12:45-1 pm at Harbison Walmart SuperStop. Look for Cola City/Kim and Comet/Brittany to greet you. Depart 1:10 pm: We will ride the bus downtown to the Comet Central Station for an orientation/hands-on activity. 2:15 depart back on Comet to the Harbison Walmart SuperStop at 3 pm.
