August is Commute Solutions Month, and in this year's “My Solution Is…” pledge campaign, commuters promise to participate in the commute alternative solution throughout the month of August. In return, the East Harris County Manufacturers Association will donate one dollar for every person (up to the first $10,000) who commits to try a commute alternative during the month of August to support clean air initiatives.
**Additionally, all pledge participants will receive a coupon for a free Jamba Juice, the chance to win a $1,000 gas gift card and discount for Houston Dynamo tickets. Visit http://www.MySolutionIs.com to make the pledge!
The gas card for a grand...I can see the winner run right out and abandoning the old car pool and get back in his SUV. Sarcasm aside, but maybe a rail pass or similar Mass Transit card might work better.
The last time we were back in Clear Lake visiting the fam there I remember it took us hours just to get out of the Houston area and we had left Clear Lake at 6:30! I think its just that the 10 Sucks no matter where you live.
