Employee Seeks Commute Partner
An employee is looking to join a carpool or vanpool. This employee travels from Hayden Lake and currently leaves home at 6:20 a.m. in order to arrive to work at 7:10 a.m. The work day ends at 4:15 p.m. If you live in this area or are on the same route to Whitworth, perhaps this would be a great opportunity to carpool rather than driving alone. If you are interested, please contact JoAnn Fox, employee transportation coordinator, at x4413.
