interact with each other will connect the community together,
says Katelyn Brown, events coordinator for the Downtown
Bryan Association.
“For the community members and local Aggies that come to
this event, they might not realize that there’s so many student
organizations,” says Brown. “It will be educational for the
community to learn more about what the students are being
involved in during their time here, but it will also be an opportunity
for those student organizations to get the word out about what
they’re all about and how the community can support them.”
Similar to First Friday, businesses in downtown Bryan will
remain open through the length of the event, including offering
special discounts to college students. Students who bring their
Texas A&M or Blinn student ID will receive 12 percent discounts
at participating businesses, says Brown.
One feature unique to this event, especially compared to First
Friday, will be a shuttle service delivering people from various
areas around town to downtown Bryan, says King. Working in
partnership with Texas A&M’s Transportation Services, buses
will pick up at the Memorial Student Center between 5:30 and 7
p.m., and make return trips after the event’s conclusion.
Providing free transportation for students to head to
downtown Bryan was essential, says Brown.
“Transportation is a huge issue for a lot of students,” says
Brown. “Some people don’t have cars, just relying on the bus
system. It’s been our long-term goal to have the Aggie spirit
buses make a stop in downtown Bryan, so having free shuttles ...
will be an added help to get those students down here, because
transportation can be a barrier.”
