This year’s hot holiday gift item is the ORCA card, good for rides on buses, trains and ferries throughout King, Kitsap, Pierce and Snohomish counties. For a limited time, get a card with no card fee that’s ready to ride and save you money on transit trips in 2010. This holiday season is the perfect time to get started with ORCA. You can load between $5 and $300 on the card’s “E-purse” for trip-by-trip deduction, or load a monthly unlimited ride pass. Cards are still available this holiday season with no card fee. Starting Feb. 1, a standard adult or youth ORCA card will cost $5. There are lots of options for getting an ORCA card in time for the holidays. The most convenient option for ordering or adding value to an ORCA card is online 24 hours a day, seven days a week at www.orcacard.com. Cards are also available by phone, by mail, or at 19 outlets or vending machines at 22 rail stations located throughout the region. Your ORCA card works like cash or a pass, automatically tracking the value of different fares and transfers so you don’t have to. You can’t lose with ORCA. If you create a My ORCA account and register your card, you can protect your balance and automatically re-load the card. Lately, I’ve been thinking about my grandfather—his life and his legacy.
