Another message from the green glimmer in our eye over here at MCB
The Night Move Bus!

Reason #154 to ride the Night Move:
To be GREEN this St. Patrick's Day!
What's your favorite reason to Night Move?
Hey kiddos!
Bus here, with loads of news to brighten up your day, so check it...
First up, this Friday night take the Night Move to Greektown at its new 6pm start time, then the People Mover (FREE -- ask your driver for a token) just five stops to Joe Louis Arena to watch the Wings game at 7:30. (Please note: Apologies for my error in last week's newsletter. The People Mover's new clockwise direction means all my stop counts were wrong -- oops! No one ever said the bus wasn't blonde... Go to the People Mover's website for details.)
Saturday night, the Bus regrets to inform you that we will not be running our regular route. BUT if you're a member of the DIA's lovely Founders Junior Council, make sure Cirque is in your iCal, G-Cal or whatever cal you're using these days, and take the Night Move to the Roostertail for free.
Upcoming awesomeness:
March 14 is the next "Culinary Road Trip," for your learning/eating pleasure. It's the "Cook's Tour," for anyone interested in blowing off the "Don't try this at home" mantra.
The Night Move and Metromix will be presenting two days of green-flavored St. Patrick's fun and shenanigans, sponsored by Bud Light. Stay tuned for details and schedule for riding the Night Move down to Detroit's annual St. Pat's Parade and a Corktown bar crawl on Sunday, March 15 and for a St. Patrick's Day bar crawl from Royal Oak to Ferndale to Detroit and back all day on Tuesday, March 17.

Watch CW50 toward the end of next week to see
Night Move owner Chris talk shop and lavish affection on the D.
