During Rideshare Week in October, San Benito County residents were encouraged to find alternative modes of transportation to driving solo.

In October, the Council of San Benito County Governments, along with two other regional agencies, sponsored a Rideshare Week to encourage residents to find alternatives to work beside driving solo. Those who carpooled, rode a bike or the bus, or walked to work had a chance to enter a drawing for prices.


For more information on alternative modes of transportation, call San Benito County Rideshare at 831-637-POOL (831-637-7665), email in**@sa**********.org or visit www.sanbenitorideshare.org.


Winners were announced Thursday. In San Benito County, Kenneth Weatherly and Terrie Ferguson won $100 gift card toward an electronic purchase. Two winners were selected from each participating jurisdiction, including Monterey, Santa Cruz and San Benito counties. But a handful of winners also qualified for regional gifts.

A one-night stay with golf for two guests at Pebble Beach went to Henry Houston. Raquelle Miller won a $300 gift card toward an electronics purchase. Frank Rivera got a $200 gift card toward an electronics purchase.

Monterey Bay Aquarium passes went to Conor Delaney, Christine Pressas and George Matsumoto.

“Congratulations to all winners,” the agencies said in a press statement. “We also thank all participants in Rideshare Month 2012 for using sustainable transportation modes in October. Thank you for helping keep our air cleaner.”
