Enjoy Free Shuttle Service to the Light the Night Walk
Return to BlogThe Gateway Chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) has partnered with Metro to provide free shuttle service on Saturday, September 24, to the Light the Night Walk in Forest Park.
The LLS’s annual charity event promotes blood cancer awareness and raises money to support research for blood cancer cures. The Light the Night Walk will take place at the Central Fields in Forest Park and is scheduled to begin at 7:30 p.m.
Metro will operate the free bus shuttles between the Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Station and the Light the Night Walk area at the Central Fields, making it easy and convenient for you to participate and support the event. The shuttles will also make a stop at the Dennis and Judith Jones Visitor and Education Center to pick up and drop off those who leave their vehicles at the center’s parking lot.
The free shuttles will operate every 12 minutes between 5:10 p.m. and 7 p.m. Then as you head home after the walk, you’ll be able to catch a return trip on the shuttles every 15 minutes from 8:50 p.m. to 9:50 p.m.
Park at any one of 21 free Metro Park-Ride lots in Missouri and Illinois and purchase round-trip tickets to ride MetroLink to the Forest Park-DeBaliviere MetroLink Station to connect with the free bus shuttles. You can also ride the #1 Gold or #90 Hampton MetroBus routes to reach the Forest Park-DeBaliviere Station to catch one of the shuttles to the event.
