This was an experience for families to have free summer fun in the neighborhood without technology. GVC provided shuttle transportation, allowing families to experience a school bus electric vehicle.

“We are thankful to all of our community partners who helped to make this a reality,” Angela Torres, executive director of Throggs Neck Community Alliance, said. “Throggs Neck Community Alliance is a partnership of so many who also desire to see community grow and that only happens when we work together.”
