The Mobile Markets take place outdoors, rain or shine. We stress that it's important to wear comfortable, weather appropriate clothes. As this is a very hands-on activity and there is no secure place to leave your property, it is recommended that you travel light, i.e., personal belongings should be left at home/office or a messenger bag/backpack should be used.
All volunteers should wear sturdy, closed-toe shoes to this project. Ballet flats, loafers, sandals, and flip-flops are not permitted.
Be sure to plan your travel in advance, especially if you are unfamiliar with the area. Use http://www.mta.info or Google maps to plan your trip the night before and you can also set up your smart phone's GPS app before you leave. Check the MTA website for any service changes or delays the day of the event.
