Carpooling to the 2015 Winter Getaway

January 2, 2015 BY Amanda Murphy Kumpas

 

Need a ride? Have an extra space or two in your car? Flying in and looking to rent a car or share expenses on an airport shuttle? Taking public transit and looking to connect with other participants? Post here to connect with others.

Please note, that over the years participants have often waited until the last minute to use the carpool board. However, the sooner you post, the more likely you are to find someone to share a ride with.

    Hi! Anybody driving from Boston or New York? (I live in Cambridge, but I can hop on the Chinatown bus to New York pretty easily.) I’m not a driver, but I’m good company; will navigate, man the radio, etc. as needed; willing to help out with gas and tolls.

    I have a ride to the Getaway but am looking for a ride home to Chatham, NJ. Can be dropped off anywhere along the Dover train line as well. Will happily pay for gas and tolls.

      Hi Michelle,
      I am happy to take you back to Chatham. I actually live in Bernardsville but that works. If you need a ride to the workshop let me know I am available.

        Marie,

        That’s great. I’m all set getting to the workshop – just need a ride home.

        My email is mcameron19 (at) gmail dot com, if you want to touch base by email. I’m delighted to have a ride home!

    Anybody swinging near Newark, NJ, who I can ride (and share expenses and driving) with?

    Alternatively, but less good, anybody need a ride?

    I’m still looking to carpool. I don’t have a car, but I’m happy to share gas, tolls.
