Get Your Motor Running – Calling on All Bus Roadeo Teams

The April TTA Conference in Corpus Christi will again feature one of our more popular events – the State Bus Roadeo. The Roadeo will be held on Saturday, April 17th, 2010 at the Whataburger Field Parking lot, home of the Double-A baseball Corpus Christi Hooks. Lunch will be provided for all competitors and volunteers.

A maximum of three drivers and two maintenance teams per property are invited to participate in the Driving, Maintenance and Para-transit tie-down competitions. A 35’ and 40’ Gillig 700 Series and a 25’ El Dorado Para-transit vehicle will be provided.

Para-transit competition includes the wheelchair tie-down and all three bus competitions include the Before Ops check.

Later awards will be presented and tickets will be provided to watch the Hooks play a little baseball courtesy of Corpus Christi Regional Transit Authority.
