Hi All - mark your calendars for the EALS Coalition's next community
meeting on Third Thursday, Oct 20 at 7:30 pm at the Fox Library.
Please stop by to meet your neighbors, learn about EALS, enjoy free
home-made refreshments and watch/listen to an interesting presentation
about a livability-related topic.
Our special guest will be the General Manager of Boston's bike share
system, Hubway. Scott Mullen--an East Arlington resident--from Alta
Bike Share will have a presentation that includes a brief history of
the bike share movement globally, planning for the system in Boston,
Hubway's great success in its first year, and its expansion to
Cambridge, Somerville and elsewhere in the near future. Scott will
have one of the Hubway bikes with him so those who haven't seen one in
downtown Boston will be able to kick the tires. This is a rare
opportunity to learn about how the community has quickly gotten on
board the bike share concept and why Hubway has the real potential to
enhance transportation options throughout Greater Boston.
This event represents EALS' fall community meeting, which we host
semi-annually. The next meeting and presentation is scheduled for
April 2012.
thanks
-Phil and Chad
