Lawrence Transit staff are excited to join the Lawrence Public Library to provide a special “Take Me for A Ride Storytime.” This collaboration between the library and the transit system will feature stories, crafts, and a real trip on the bus.
Storytime will include books about transportation, followed by a bus-themed craft project. Children and their families are invited to board a Lawrence Transit bus for a short trip around downtown. The featured vehicle will be one of the city’s 100% electric buses.
“I remember talking to a couple of teenagers last year who used fare free Route 6 to go from the Library to Rock Chalk Park after school,” said Adam Weigel, Director of Transit. “The bus provides freedom for people in Lawrence not yet of driving age, so we hope these young readers can soon become young riders.”
When: Friday, Nov. 15 and Tuesday, Nov. 19
Time: Storytime begins at 10:30. Groups will take turns completing the craft project and boarding the bus for a trip around downtown.
Where: Lawrence Public Library, 707 Vermont St. Storytime will be held in the auditorium.
