Jason Myers challenged “Lunch with Friends” attendees to think of trains – and busses and bikes – as ways to positively impact the natural world and bring about social justice. Those who weren’t able to attend the program can view Jason’s slides here. Jason highlighted several ways we can all add public transportation into our travel schedules, including the new “Rail & Ride Pass” option.
Jason is also a content-creator through a blog that offers his personal insights into public transportation. One recent post is titled “Amtrak Joe, Hometowns, and what Amtrak’s Past Can Teach Us About its Future.”
A lively conversation continued over the salad and dessert bar lunch.
The final 2026 “Lunch with Friends” will be held on Dec. 12. Hope to see you then! If you would like to help with set up or clean up of the simple lunch, please contact Jeanne Ledbetter or Merrilee Jacobson (contact info in Breeze or via office.cucc@gmail.com).
