Photo Contest Awards Users of Summer Bus Pass

Each year, OCTA offers the youth of Orange County a golden opportunity for vacation fun, and this year is no exception. The OCTA Summer Bus Pass, which provides riders 18 and younger with unlimited bus rides from June 1 through August 31, is now on sale for only $60.

Visitors come from all over the world to enjoy the beauty and attractions of Orange County. Summer Bus Pass holders can have the same experiences – for only 65 cents a day.

Pass holders will also enjoy discounts at more than 20 entertainment destinations throughout the county, including Boomers, Medieval Times and the Discovery Science Center.

To encourage rides to these and other great destinations, OCTA is offering prizes such as iTunes cards and OC Fair Prize Packages to OCTA Summer Bus Pass holders, who snap a picture and share it on OCTA’s social media channels with the hashtag #octasummer. The photo contest begins June 1 and runs through August 31, 2014. Winners will be selected weekly.

Last year more than 3,500 youth took advantage of the Summer Bus Pass, taking more than 190,000 trips during the three-month period.

The three-month pass can be purchased online at www.octa.net/summer, at the OCTA store located at 550 S. Main St. in Orange, by calling (714) 560-5932 or at local Orange County Ralphs, Vons, Pavilions and Northgate Markets. Click here to learn about a special offer.
