Transit Hosts Special Event on Jan. 6 to Celebrate Arizona Centennial

Commemorative Arizona Centennial Transit Pass Giveaway & Facebook Contest at Central Station

When: Friday, January 6, 2012 6 a.m. – 8 a.m.

Where: Central Station, downtown Phoenix Northeast corner Van Buren and 1st Avenue

Who: Costumed actors arrive at Central Station at 6 a.m., then board METRO light rail at 7 a.m. to greet passengers and distribute passes on their way to Tempe Transportation Center and Montebello and 19th Avenue.
