Subsidized buses will shuttle to and from the Rebbe’s Ohel throughout the days leading up to Shavuos including leaving shortly before Yom Tov and returning after Shabbos.
Buses will leave from Crown Heights at a subsidized price of $7 round-trip for men, women, and children. There will also be a bus leaving shortly before Yom tov begins and returning after yom tov, reservations are required for this time slot.
The buses will leave Crown Heights from the ‘Dreidel’ on the corner of Eastern Parkway and Kingston.
It is well known that the Rebbe would visit the Ohel before shavuos.
