Our team is the heart of every journey. 💛 It’s Employee Appreciation Day, and we’re shouting out the incredible drivers, mechanics, and operations staff at SCT and 417 Bus Line. From the shop to the driver’s seat, it takes an entire team of dedicated professionals to keep our fleet moving safely. We are so proud of the work you do behind the scenes and on the road to support our community every single day. Thanks for being part of our family.
Switzer-CARTY Transportation and 417 Bus Line Ltd. are proud to support the Madoc Lions Club. They are known in the community as "a little club with a big heart", and it's the truth. We had the pleasure of partnering with the Madoc Lions to support the annual trip for the Madoc 385 Royal Canadian Army Cadet Corps. The trip to Ripley's Aquarium was a huge success! Investing in our youth is so important, and we love seeing them thrive.
What a fantastic day at the United Way Windsor-Essex Neighbourhood Celebration event in Leamington on August 29th! Our Switzer-CARTY team was excited to be on hand for the United Way's Pathway to Potential program launch. We had a booth set up with our mini bus, where we shared important information on school bus safety, handed out fun colouring books and stickers, and helped get families ready for the new school year. Thanks to our incredible ambassadors, Bonnie H. and Barbara K., for making it such a success! They loved meeting so many members of the local community. 🚌
It's time for our #MeetTheTeamMonday! This week, we're celebrating Savahna, one of our amazing Spare Drivers. She's been with #TeamSwitzerCARTY for two years and loves the variety her role brings. Why? It's like a mini road trip every day! 🚌 “I love to drive and every day is a different adventure! It makes my travelling spirit happy, and I get to meet new students and see new scenery. It’s so rewarding and at the end of every day, I know I've made an impact.” Why not turn your passion for the road into a rewarding job as a school bus driver? Connect with us to find out more!
Three Generations, One Team! Meet an incredible multi-generational family from our Greely branch. On the left is Kathy, a driver with over 20 years of experience. On the far right is her daughter Jasmine, a driver trainer with 14 years in the busing industry. In the middle are Jasmine’s daughters, Beth and Faith, who have been instrumental in our summer bus washing program. We could not be more proud to have generations of a family working together. Their dedication, from decades of experience to getting our buses sparkling clean for the new school year, is what makes #TeamSwitzerCARTY so special. ⭐
The most beautiful projects are created with the deepest love. ❤️ Meet Doug, one of our incredible drivers. Beyond his daily dedication to driving the future, Doug demonstrates his profound commitment to our community by donating his earnings to the local hospital to support other families. His generosity is matched only by his heart. Doug spent his summer creating this beautiful flower bed at our Bancroft yard as a heartfelt tribute to his late wife, a hobby they shared. The special red flower which will bloom at the centre serves as a touching symbol of her memory. Doug, you are a shining example of the values we hold dear. Your compassion, kindness, and heart are what make #TeamSwitzerCARTY so special.
What makes a workplace feel like home? For us, it's moments like this... Four years ago, Melanie moved to the Ottawa region and started working at our Clarence-Rockland branch. Before and after school, her daughter Skylar would also spend time at the branch, and she quickly became a honorary team member. At the end of June, following her Grade 6 graduation ceremony, Skylar came to the branch to show off her beautiful dress and to share this special milestone. Her only ask: "a photo with her family". 💛 This is what #ItTakesAVillage truly means to us. We’re incredibly proud to foster an environment where our employees and their families feel supported, valued, and right at home. #SwitzerCARTYTransportation #FamilyFriendlyWorkplaces #CompanyCulture #Teamwork #CommunitySupportingCommunity
As we count down the days to back-to-school, we want to give a massive thank you to all our amazing summer wash crews across our 16 branches. It was a tough summer with the heat and challenging air quality, but your dedication has ensured our fleet is sparkling and ready to welcome back the students. The team you see in this photo is our Greely crew, led by Jessica Roy. We appreciate every one of them (L-R): Elliott, Lex , Jessica, Lindy, and Faith! 🧼🧽✨
