I am fairly new to slugging. I started about 3 months ago. I was wondering how hard it will be getting rides during the holiday season, especially the week of Christmas? Any input would be much appreciated.

I'm fairly new as well, but I did go into work on Black Friday and it was pretty scarce. No one was at my lot and I had to use Horner Rd which had maybe 200 cars. I was able to catch a ride both to and from work, but you definitely need alternatives. My guess is that you should be fine because not everyone takes off so there'll be someone slugging, especially to 610 I'd imagine. What you could also do is to slug out of Horner Rd if you're finding it difficult on Christmas Eve. Try it out and just have a backup plan.

Forget Horner Rd, use Potomac Mills!

I believe Christmas Eve and New Years Eve are the actual Federal holidays. So I don't think anyone will be using the slug system [^]. However, the day before might be a challenge [?]

It might get a little iffey on the 23rd and the 30th for the afternoons, so have a bus token at hand just in case.
