General Announcements

Congrats, Antonio, Winner at the Farmers Market

Campus Kitchen would like to congratulate Antonio Spargo who won a free week's worth of produce from the Augsburg Farmers Market which debuted last Tuesday and continues every Tuesday from 2-5 in front of Foss Chapel. Please come by for fresh herbs, greens, and other vegetables (we may even see tomatoes this week).

This week will also showcase a bake-off between Betsey Norgard and Jacqueline deVries who will be sharing samples of zucchini bread and recipes.

If you can't make the 2-5 time, the farmers sell at the other West Bank Market at the Brian Coyle Community Center from 10-1.

In the case of rain, the farmers will sell in the Atrium of the Foss Chapel - that means most of you don't even have to step outside to get access to delicious, fresh produce.

Important Notice for Go-To-College Pass Holders

Attention all Go-To College Transit Pass Holders

Please be sure to validate each ride before you board a Hiawatha light-rail train.

To validate your ride, Go-To pass users must touch their card to a Go-To Card reader on rail station platforms before each ride. Although a Go-To pass is a pre-paid card, each ride must be validated to satisfy the Metropolitan Council’s fare policy. Failure to validate a ride prior to boarding could result in a ticket.

This summer, Metro Transit is upgrading the hand-held devices that Transit Police use to verify that a fare has been paid. Officers will be able to tell if a Metropass has been validated before the customer boarded the train. Note: This also impacts customers who use a Metropass.

Please be sure to validate every time you ride -- a ticket could cost $180.

Thanks for your help!
