Many thanks to the hundreds of people who stopped by the PARTA booth each day of the Portage County Randolph Fair to spin our "Wheel of Fortune," win a prize, and learn more about PARTA. We particularly loved hearing from those of you who just wanted to stop by our booth and tell us how much you appreciated the service PARTA has provided to you or a member of your family. Many shared stories similar to Gail whose disabled daughter used PARTA when she lived in Portage County.
