The fine print for the bus trip:

Suggested minimum contribution:
$75 each (Students, Seniors and Special Cases $45 each)
This is a political campaign contribution and is not deductible. All FEC rules apply and no contributions will be accepted from corporations or PACs. The first $250 of each person's contributions may be matched by Federal Matching Funds.

Riders may choose to board the bus or debark anywhere along the route. However, the entire contribution is expected in order to hold your seat, unless compensating arrangements can be made. Note that all 30 contributions are needed to pay for the transportation and meals. Additional contributions will be used to create scholarships for some seats!

Riders may be picked up at any of the stops along the way. The bus will go back the same route with the same stops, if we have to drop someone off there. Please note that the return trip will run late, especially if we get into the South Portland event. We may be able to arrange car-pooling among the riders to minimize the return trips. We also may be able to meet a public transportation bus into Orono in the morning.
