Colonial Equipment Company Supplies Bus to Cristo Rey Jesuit High School

Online, April 20, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Colonial Equipment Company (www.thebusplace.com) regional dealer of buses and specialty vehicles was chosen by Cristo Rey Jesuit High School as their dealer of choice for a new MFSAB (Multi-Function School Activity Bus).

When Tony Sochurek, Director of Finance and Facilities, initiated his search for a new bus he was referred to Colonial Equipment Company by a friend at another School. After meeting with Debi MacKown, the MFSAB Specialist, and reviewing the available inventory on hand Tony chose a 14 passenger MFSAB.

"The school needed the bus to add to its existing fleet for safely transporting sports teams and in support of our volunteer activities. The school has a strong commitment to supporting the community through their Movable Feast project which provides meals for the home bound and those going through breast cancer recovery.
"This bus met all of our requirements and didn't require our drivers to have a CDL (Commercial Drivers License)," Tony Said. "We were very happy with the easy buying process and Colonial was even able to handle the bus lettering for us, which allowed us to put the bus into service immediately upon delivery."

Cristo Rey Jesuit School teaches youngsters living in disadvantaged neighborhoods throughout the Baltimore City area utilizing a rigorous college prep program and combines this curriculum with a real-life work study programs in companies and organizations throughout the Baltimore metropolitan region.
