[Ohio-talk] Traveling To State Convention

[Cheryl Fields]

Thanks, M! Just wanted to add to this.Mega Bus fares are changing
rapidly. so, when you are on line/ on the phone and tcheapest fare is
offered, purchase it right then. It could change in a matter of
moments.
Greyhound has competitive fares if you use the on line service. As low
as $ 25. round trip for most buses.
I called the hotel and there is not a shuttle to and from the bus
station. Mainstream is available for this andtaxi services. Maybe some
of you in Columbus can send us a list of taxi companies, and approx.
how much the fare should be from bus station to hotel, thanks.
TGIF! C. Fields
