(CLAIR | Simi Valley, CA) – Hold onto your travel trailers, Simi Valley! National Dump the Pump Day is rolling in on June 17, 2024. It’s time to swap those car keys for a bus pass. This annual event encourages us to give our gas guzzlers a break and embrace the magic of public transportation.
In Simi Valley, the idea of riding the bus might sound as rare as finding a closeup parking spot at Costco, but this year, we’re making it a thing. Picture this: buses meandering around town, carrying a handful of adventurous souls looking to save a few bucks on gas and do a solid for Mother Earth. Our local buses, often rolling through the city with more empty seats than a high school study hall in June, will be eagerly waiting for you to hop on board.
Simi Valley’s buses offer an experience you won’t soon forget – mainly because you’ll have plenty of space to stretch out and enjoy the ride. With ample seating and panoramic window views, you can soak in the sights of the Simi Hills without the hassle of dodging traffic or hunting for parking. Plus, you’ll have the unique thrill of being able to say you’ve actually ridden the bus in Simi Valley.
So, this June 17, picture yourself on a bus, waving cheerfully at your fellow passengers (if any), and enjoying the novelty of it all. Celebrate by packing a lunch for the ride, bringing along your favorite book, or just savoring some quiet time as you journey through the city. With National Dump the Pump Day, think of it as your ticket to a scenic Simi Valley tour in solitude.
Whether you’re a bus-riding novice or a seasoned pro, mark your calendars for June 17, and make Simi Valley’s buses the place to be – if only for a day.
