Two Can Pool! |
|
CobbRides would like to reward all new 2-person
carpools with a nice bonus--$60 in free gas! If you are
new to carpooling and have not registered at the
Commuter Rewards site, now is the time to do so.
When you register, be sure to name your carpool
partner. CobbRides will contact you with an ID number
and provide you with your dates of eligibility. All you
will need to do is log your carpool days (12 or more
each month) at the site and a $20 gas card will be
mailed to you. Details are available by clicking on the
carpool image or below. You can also send an email to
Jennine@CobbRides.com.

Vanpool popularity still growing |
|
In May, Kennesaw State University started
their first vanpool funded in part by CobbRides. They
have already grown their vanpool from seven to eleven
passengers in just over a month.
“We are still excited and loving it!” said Donna Adams,
the volunteer driver. “We stop for breakfast on
Fridays.”
For information on forming a vanpool click below or
