WESTON, WI (WSAU-WAOW) – Lamers Transportation Company hosted an event in Weston on Saturday.
The event was created to find more possible bus drivers. Schools and bus companies have been short of bus drivers for, a while but Lamers wanted to solve that problem.
They hosted a ‘Drive The Bus’ event. The event was created to let allow anyone to come see what’s it like to drive a bus. “We will allow anyone to come in get on a bus with our trainer and drive it around our parking lot a couple of times and really see how easy it is to drive a bus”, said Wendi DeMars, the bus recruiter.
If you or someone else may be interested in becoming a bus driver they want to make sure you know the requirements.
” You need to be 21 years old and have a CDL and we take from the beginning of the process to the end of that process so it’s not so intimidating”, said DeMars.
