&lt;h2&gt;Way To Go! Commuter Challenge&lt;/h2&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Tentative 2010 Date:&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;May 3rd - May 7th, 2010 &lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.waytogovt.org&quot;&gt;www.waytogovt.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;The 2010 event is in the planning stages, so watch for details to appear over the next several months as plans are formalized.&amp;nbsp; The year 2010&amp;nbsp;will mark a transition of&amp;nbsp;the event from the oversight by CCMPO to VEIC (Vermont Energy&amp;nbsp;Investment Corporation) to&amp;nbsp;effectively move the program&amp;nbsp;statewide.&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;h4&gt;&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.riderct.org/&quot;&gt;Pool to School&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h4&gt;
&lt;p&gt;A number of schools in Vermont participated&amp;nbsp;this year for the 6th annual&amp;nbsp;&amp;quot;Pool to School&amp;quot; event&amp;nbsp;to highlight carpooling and public transportation.&amp;nbsp; This provides an opportunity for parents whose children attend the same school to join and/or form a carpool to the child&#039;s school.&amp;nbsp; The Program in Vermonyt is geared to area 4th, 5th&amp;nbsp;and 6th grade students.&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Students were asked to draw posters which are submitted to RCT.&amp;nbsp; County winners traveled to the&amp;nbsp;Vermont Statehouse where they&amp;nbsp;were presented&amp;nbsp;with Certificates from Governor&amp;nbsp;Jim Douglas.&amp;nbsp;In the course or his presentation, the Governor commented how much he&amp;nbsp;admires and approves of&amp;nbsp;the program and would like to see it expand to other areas of the State.&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;Contact Rural Community Transportation, Inc. (&lt;a target=&quot;_blank&quot; href=&quot;http://www.riderct.org&quot;&gt;RCT&lt;/a&gt;)&amp;nbsp;for more information at 802-748-8170.&amp;nbsp; &amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;&amp;nbsp;&lt;/p&gt;
