On June 26, CAMBUS drivers competed in a “bus roadeo” - an obstacle course for buses. The CAMBUS annual bus roadeo is a friendly competition amongst student staff to test their driving skills in a ten-part obstacle course. Three student employees, Darshaun Smith, Neil Smithson, and Ben Koch, also qualified to move on to the state roadeo to compete against bus drivers from transit agencies across the state of Iowa.

Face masks are no longer required when riding CAMBUS. The new guidance follows the April 18 federal court ruling against the mask requirement on public transportation. However, with COVID-19 still present in our community, face masks remain an effective tool for protecting yourself and others against the virus.
