Metra announced today that it will recognize Take a Child to Work Day on Thursday, April 24, by allowing young people 12 and under who are accompanied by an adult to ride for free.
“Once again, Metra is happy to celebrate Take a Child to Work Day, and we are making it easier for our customers who are taking their kids to work by offering free rides for the children,” said Metra Executive Director/CEO Jim Derwinski. “This day provides a great opportunity for girls and boys to shadow and experience what their parents or guardians do at work. We know that for many of our riders, commuting with Metra is a part of that.”
Take a Child to Work Day and Beyond is sponsored by Junior Achievement. The event is designed to inspire children to explore career opportunities, develop essential skills, and envision their future with confidence.
