METRO Celebrates Fiesta Patrias
Friday, September 04, 2009 3:05 PM
This Sunday, METRO is joining the celebration of Fiesta Patrias, a national Mexican holiday celebrating Mexico's independence from Spain.
The celebration will occur at Reliant Park , and you'll find METRO at a giant booth - complete with one of our new Quickline buses on display. We'll be at Exhibit Hall D, next to McDonald's in Booth B2.
Drop by, and register for a chance to win one of 15 goodie bags. We'll give one away every hour, but during peak hours of 2 p.m. to 5 p.m., we'll be giving two to three per hour. You do not have to be present to win.
Inside the goodie bags, you'll find two Dynamo tickets, two tickets to the Houston Museum of Natural Science (permanent exhibits), an umbrella, briefcase, totebag, VIP pen/pencil set - and a METRO Q® Fare Card preloaded with $10, courtesy of Univision Radio.
"We're hitting a different angle where it will be relaxing," said Tom Pham, METRO's advertising account executive. "Visit our booth, get on the bus, check out the interior. This will be more relaxing than just handing out items."
We'll have our booth stocked with brochures, too, so you can find out about METRO's services.
In addition to climbing aboard a new hybrid-electric Quickline bus, you'll be able to meet Abuelita, the grandma and face of our Hispanic campaign.
Our booth will be open from noon to 6 p.m. See you there....¡Acompáñanos!
