Visit SRTC At Spokane County Interstate Fair

The Spokane County Interstate Fair kicks off late next week and SRTC will be there. Come visit us in the 'Go Green' area of the pavilion, where we've got a table with a group of other agencies. We'll be sharing the staffing responsibilities with people from those other agencies, so if you actually want to talk to Jeff or I, come on Monday, Wednesday or Saturday :)

I checked and yes, wheelchairs are available at the Fair to rent.

They can be found at the main gate for $5 per day for non-electric chairs. Small electric scooters (250 lb weight capacity) rental rates are $10.00 for the first two hours and $5.00 per hour after the first two hours (or $35.00 per day).

Large electric scooter (250+ lb weight capacity) rental rates are $15.00 for the first two hours and $5.00 per hour after the first two hours (or $40.00 per day). All rentals are subject to availability and reservations are not accepted.
