BUS ENTHUSIASTS FORM CLUB

(Gunnison) Local bus enthusiasts have organized the nation’s first recognized and official bus club here according to a press release received this morning. The club, founded for promotion and preservation of bus-related culture, will attempt to educate the public while it combats common misgivings about this kind of travel.

     In addition the club will be responsible for recording bus lingo and chronicling history of buses in the Western Slope region. Slide shows on the most recent technology and hints on making left turns will be presented each Friday night at the site of the demolished LaVeta Hotel on South Boulevard Street.

     “We’ll be taking field trips to local fields and meeting the bus when it arrives on its daily trek from Pueblo and points beyond,” said Ralph Cramdent of Almont. “Why just the other day we had a bus right here in Gunnison that came all the way from Kansas City. Small world, heh?”

     Members feel that the public will gain new perspectives into bus travel through the efforts described here.

     “With the Congress dragging its feet on passing gas we could all soon be riding the bus,” smiled Cramden, “and there’s nothing worse than a rookie holding up the line looking for change or asking the driver stupid questions.”
