A.C.T. Offers Valet Bike Parking on Bike to the Theatre Nights

Stage Directions: "American Conservatory Theater (A.C.T.), in partnership with the San Francisco Bicycle Coalition (SFBC), is providing a greener alternative to theatre transportation. For each production of the season, A.C.T. will host a Bike to the Theatre Night, during which the SFBC will offer free valet bike parking for all patrons who cycle to the theatre. Valet bike parking is available one hour prior to showtime. Bicycles will be attended throughout the evening. Patrons are asked to please bring their own locks."

Especially with the G20 right around the corner, we're all kind of being reminded to pay attention to the environment and what we can do to contribute to saving the planet, and i think its great that a theatre especially in San Fransisco which has a such a reputation for having residents completely dependable on automobiles. because theatres (esp scene shops) go through so many resources to make a show happen, i feel that theatres should definitely pay more attention to the sustainable materials that they are using as well as try to conserve what materials they can from show to show.

This is riley cool that a theater is encouraging people to bike ride to there shows. with the environment being more of a issue and now the theaters are promoting getting to the theater in a green way. this article is from San Francisco and San francisco is a big town about being green and thinking about the environment and making the planet more clean. the one thing that i find strange is that the people riding the bikes to the theater have to bring there owen locks . i hop that more theaters start to do this.
