The ACE San Jose Jazz and Great America Trains are this Saturday. Take a look at the article below from the Stockton Record, written by Jo Ann Kirby.
ACE knows easy way to San Jose
Escape to the city for a fun-filled day without the hassle of East Bay traffic by taking part in one of two Altamont Commuter Express events Saturday. At 9:30 a.m. you can climb aboard an air-conditioned commuter train and head for the San Jose Jazz Festival. Or, if your kids are cool but not that cool, take the other train leaving that morning, headed to California's Great America. "We do some special events a couple of times a year on a weekend. In the past, we've had an A's game event. Last year, we went to the Raiders' opening home game," ACE spokesman D'Andre Berry said. "It's been awhile since we've gone to the San Jose Jazz Festival, and people missed it, so we brought that back. Great America is always a big hit." And the price is right. Regular admission to Great America is $54.99 for adults and $29.99 for kids, plus a $12 parking fee. Take part in Saturday's ACE event, and the price is $50 per person. It includes admission to Great America, round-trip transportation, and an all-you-can eat buffet lunch at the amusement park.
