VERNON – There may be no such thing as a free lunch, but on Wednesday, June 8, transit users in Vernon can look forward to both free bus rides and free breakfast.
To thank people who help keep the air we breathe clean by using public transit, and to encourage more to join their ranks, Vernon Regional Transit will provide free rides all day.
There will also be a free continental breakfast from 6:30 to 9:30 a.m. at the Vernon Downtown Transit Exchange, 31ST Avenue at 30th Street. The breakfast is provided by CUPE Local 626, the Regional District of North Okanagan, Downtown Vernon Association and VantageOne Credit Union.
Clean Air Day falls in the middle of Environment Week in Canada and right after Bike to Work and School Week in Vernon. It is one more way of reminding people of the benefits of opting for transportation modes that have a lower impact on the environment.
