Transit Thrift Tour #2
Join StrongSacTown for another Transit Thrift Tour! We'll meet at University/65th St. Gold Line Light Rail Station and then using a few bus routes to go to these three thrift shops:
Noah's Ark Thrift and Gift
Society of St. Vincent Thrift Shop
WEAVE Thrift
This is a great opportunity to learn how to take the bus, shop for your halloween costume or analyze bus stops/bus routes in Sacramento!
