HCC to take part in “Ride To Work Day”

Hagerstown Community College will take part in the 18th annual Ride To Work Day, on Mon., June 15.

An international event, the annual Ride To Work Day first began as an effort to demonstrate how motorcyclists can be a responsible solution to traffic congestion, parking, and fossil fuel challenges. Every year on the third Monday in June, motorcyclists and scooter riders around the world are encouraged to ride their vehicles to their places of employment.

HCC’s Motorcycle Safety Program will also be sponsoring special motorcycle-oriented activities as part of the annual event. Beginning at 12 noon, the Upper E parking lot next to the Career Programs Building on HCC’s main campus will be reserved so that bikers can practice their riding skills.
