OAKS Outing On The CTA Beachcomber

CTA will have a "Ride Free Day" on Thursday, June 20. OAKS members are planning to enjoy a ride on the Beachcomber Trolley route, east to Biloxi, have lunch at the Biloxi terminus and return to Gulfport. Approximate travel time is 2 hours with an added 1.5 to 2 hours for lunch, etc.

The plan is to meet at the Gulfport CTA Transit Center (old library) at 11:15 a.m. to catch the trolley that leaves at 11:30 a.m. We can exit the trolley along the way, or continue to it's easternmost stop near Mary Mahoney's restaurant. After lunch, we'll get back on to return to our cars parked in the garage. Please notify Marilyn Scholz or Penny Denmark no later than Sunday, June 16, if you intend to join this group outing.
