Overview of Ohio Party Bus Shuttle Services for the 2024 BLRCC Buckeye Lake Winterfest
Multiple Winterfest Service Areas
Like last year, there are 4 festival service areas: A B C and D (see areas listed below along with maps and schedules).
The lake region is divided up into 4 distinct festival areas with fun activities and stops in each area. Riders can visit all areas and stops with the Ohio Party Bus unlimited stops shuttle wristbands. All local area shuttles will be marked with a large colored area letter they are servicing and will have Ohio Party Bus logos on the sides of the vehicles.
Connection or Exchange Stops in Each Area
One connection or exchange stop in each area (marked with an asterisk below) are designated connection or exchange stops. Connection shuttles are staggered apart by 10 minutes and will be stopping at indicated locations and times to transport riders to the next service area in the route.
Riders can be taken to those connection stops by shuttle and bus to reach the next area in the Winterfest route, then riders can take the local area shuttles (two local shuttles in each area this year) to various stops in that specific area.
Connection shuttles will be marked with a large green "X" on the sides. There will be a total of 5 connection shuttles including 4 connection shuttle vans and 1 large capacity city transit bus (can carry 40-50 people).
