ResolveToLog

Are you in a CarPool but have been neglecting your log?  The region needs this information to show we are making a difference.

CarPools who resolve to start logging again in 2008 can earn $40 in gift cards.  Earn a $15 gift card for the first month you return to logging and a $25 gift card for the 2nd month of logging.  Just log 15 carpool days over the month and you earn your monthly gas card and our bonus ResolveToLog gift card.

Remember, if all members cannot log – one carpool member can log for all. Not sure how? Contact Linda@CobbRides.com

GRH

The GRH program provides a ride directly home (or directly back to their car) for commuters who carpool, vanpool, bike, walk, or take transit to get to work and have an unscheduled event occur.

The Region has changed this program, effective February 1, 2008. The upcoming program changes apply to all new users as well as individuals who are already enrolled in GRH.  All current GRH participants must re-enroll by completing the 2008 GRH registration form.

You must register to be eligible, regardless of previous registration.

All programs subject to change without notice.
