Today marks the return of My Summer Ride, which provided more than 15,000 free rides last summer and is once again offering free METS bus service for youth across Evansville this summer.

The program is available to youth ages 18 and under and helps remove transportation barriers that can limit access to summer jobs, programs, libraries, parks, and other important community resources.

Free passes will be available for pickup at the CK Newsome Center, METS Administration Building, and all public city pools. Students who may appear older than 18 should be prepared to show a school ID or report card when picking up their pass.
