🚌 First Riders 2026 ✨

What an amazing day! Our Golden Arrow team was proud to volunteer at Edmonton Catholic Schools' First Riders event at Lumen Christi Catholic Education Centre.

We got to meet some of our newest riders and their families, walk them through bus safety — how to wait at the stop, get on and off safely, and what to do in an emergency — and finish it all off with a first bus ride before the school year starts.

Seeing those big smiles (and a few brave first steps up those stairs!) is exactly why we do what we do. Thank you to ECSD and all the carriers who came together to make it happen.

To our First Riders — we'll see you on the bus! 💚

Stuff a Bus 🚌💚

We're proud to have helped stuff a bus this year — and even prouder to have driven it over to the Edmonton Catholic Schools main office ourselves.

Every item on board goes to a student who'll walk into September with everything they need. That's a good way to start a school year.

Thank you to everyone who donated, and to the ECSD team for the warm welcome. 💚

⛳ Golden Arrow is out on the course today at The Links in Spruce Grove for the Santa's Anonymous Golf Tournament!

Ron,Landon, Trish and Steve are repping the team — matching shirts and all — for a cause that means a lot to us.

We spend our year looking out for kids on the road. Getting to support them off it is an easy yes.
