Become a Friend of the Trolley this year! Article published by BBG Group Email

As the 2011 season of the Beach Trolley Association approaches, the BTA Board of Directors and our over 12,500 riders from last year invite you to become a Friend of the Trolley. Your contribution of $100, $50 or $25 will help continue the operation of the trolley that so many beach residents and visitors have come to enjoy.

In 2011, the Dunkirk Trolley will operate from the Chesapeake Beach Railway Museum to Dunkirk with stops at Walmart, Safeway and Rita's, as well as the Calvert Library at Chaneyville Road and the World Gym. It will operate on a one hour loop, beginning each hour at the Railway Museum, passing through Dunkirk on the half hour and arrive back at the Railway Museum on the hour.

The Beach Trolley will again operate from the Chesapeake Beach Railway Museum to Herrington Harbour South, traveling through the Towns of Chesapeake Beach and North Beach. It will also operate on a one hour loop, beginning each hour at the Railway Museum, arriving at Herrington Harbour South on the half hour, then arrive back at the Railway Museum on the hour.

The above two loops are laid out so that someone traveling from Dunkirk on the Dunkirk Trolley could meet up with the Beach Trolley at the Railway Museum and travel to North Beach or Herrington Harbour without a wait.

The Anne Arundel Trolley will again operate from Herrington Harbour South to Skipper's Pier in Deale, with a stop at Herrington Harbour North. This loop will also operate on an hour schedule, leaving Herrington Harbour South on the half hour, arriving at Skipper's Pier on the hour and then arriving back at Herrington Harbour South on the half hour.

And, like the Dunkirk and Beach Trolleys, the Beach Trolley and the Anne Arundel Trolleys will meet at Herrington Harbour South, so passengers will not have to wait.

As we begin our plans for 2011, we hope that we can count on your support, as it is your support of the trolley that will allow its operation to continue.
