Schwag Alert

The transit authority will distribute free bottles of hand sanitizer tomorrow at the Silver Spring Metro station. The first 1,000 riders out of the gate during the afternoon rush hour will receive one bottle plus information on how hand washing can prevent the spread of colds and the flu. Bus drivers will hand out another 2,000 bottles to riders who roll out of that station.
