Important Pod Notice!

Center Street pod is closing, 2 new pods opening soon.

Ramona (our Center St. car) is moving to a temporary new home.  Two weeks ago, the owners of the Center Street lot notified us that they need to reclaim their parking space by June 30. We have been working with the City of Burlington to secure a new spot in the parking lot on the corner of Main St. and South Winooski, but this space will unfortunately not be ready in time.  As a temporary solution, we are parking Ramona at a new pod at 255 South Champlain St. (at the corner of Maple, in VEIC's parking lot).

For those of you who love the Center St. pod, don't despair! Ramona will be moving back downtown as soon as we can secure a parking space!  In the meantime, we hope that you become friendly with our other convenient locations!  We'll keep the South Champlain pod open all summer (even after Ramona moves). With students away for the summer, Champlain College is generously sharing one of its campus cars to try out new locations. This is allowing us to open the South Champlain pod on a trial basis.

We are also looking forward to launching a new pod in the New North End in late July!  Thanks to Hauke Building Supply our new pod will be at the Ethan Allen Shopping Center in the lot across from Ace Hardware.  So, all you New North-enders who have been calling for us to head out, it's time to join!  We also need help spreading the word, so if you'd like to help out, please let us know!

As always, thanks for sharing!

Annie & Karen
