Carquinez Village members and volunteers are invited to take the 11:00 am Vallejo Ferry to San Francisco on October 11. Please register in advance.
 
Parking is available across the street from the ferry terminal (allow time to use the pay station).   Ferry tickets may be purchased onboard or if you have a Senior Clipper card, the special fare is $4.60 each way. 
 
Tips to enhance your experience: sunscreen, hats, water.  For personal safety, avoid carrying big purses or placing a wallet in a back pocket. Perhaps try a fanny pack, money belt, or cross-body style of purse.
