📊 Fact Friday: Why Public Transportation Matters 🚌

Did you know?

✔️ Public transportation is statistically one of the safest forms of transportation.
✔️ Transportation is the second-largest household expense for many American families — transit can help reduce those costs.
✔️ Communities with strong public transportation options often experience increased economic activity and business accessibility.
✔️ Older adults with access to transportation are more likely to remain independent and socially connected.
✔️ Reliable transportation improves access to healthcare appointments and employment opportunities.

Public transportation is more than just a ride — it’s access, independence, opportunity, and community connection. 💙

🎶 What a wonderful evening in Grass Lake!

WAVE was proud to be a Season Sponsor and vendor at the opening night of the 14th Annual Music in the Park & Music Market. We enjoyed connecting with community members, sharing information about WAVE services, and listening to an incredible performance by the Swamp Trolls.

Events like these remind us how important community connections are—and transportation plays a big role in helping people access local music, shopping, dining, and special events.

Thank you to the organizers, sponsors, vendors, musicians, and everyone who came out to support this fantastic community tradition. We can't wait for the next performance!

📅 Be sure to check out the remaining Music in the Park dates throughout the summer and support all the great businesses and organizations that help make these events possible.
