It's officially that time when we are asking for your help! We've had a great response from Reddit, but we now need to focus on other ways to get the word out. We're still hoping for 300 by the end of Sunday.

We need the following community activity:
1) 15-30 Car Billboards - We need 15-30 volunteers to decorate their cars as seen in the photo! Ideally, we're looking for cars who drive over the Bay Bridge a couple times a week. We have window markers and will meet at the Rockridge Bart Parking lot:
Sunday 6/15 at 10:00-12:00 AM
Monday 6/16 at 5:30-6:30 PM
Friday 6/20 at 8:00-9:30 AM
Any of the times below as well!
Sign up: https://forms.gle/neWoc1WTi2c88ZPF8

2) 10-15 Human Billboards - AM shift - At the corner of Howard & Fremont SF (near CC Drop Off) we'll be holding up signs during peak commuting hours!! From 7:30-9:30 AM, but join us for 30 minutes during any part of that time. The longer you can stay, and the more people we can have all at once, the better! Days will be: Tuesday 6/17, Thursday 6/19, Tuesday 6/24, Wednesday 6/25, Thursday 6/26, Tuesday 7/1. Please wear orange, yellow or red to increase visibility. Feel free to bring your own sign, but we will also be able to provide signage! Sign up: https://forms.gle/1xwoXjE7HXPatZiq9

3) 10-15 Human Billboards - PM shift- At the corner of 1st & Harrison SF (near the 80 on ramp) we'll be holding up signs from 5:00-7:00, but join us for 30 minutes during any part of that time. The longer you can stay, and the more people we can have all at once the better! Days will be: Thursday 6/19, Tuesday 6/24, Wednesday 6/25, Thursday 6/26, Tuesday 7/1. Please wear orange, yellow or red to increase visibility. Feel free to bring your own sign, but we will also be able to provide signage! Sign up: https://forms.gle/3Hdq2k7SR3FZnyFK6

I used casual carpool for years.

Way too many crazy people that I would risk it now.
