This holiday season, Union City families are experiencing a little extra magic thanks to the creativity, dedication, and community spirit of a local Eagle Scout who transformed a retired school bus into a Polar Express–themed holiday experience.
Inspired by the classic Christmas story, the Eagle Scout project reimagined the interior of the bus to create an immersive, festive atmosphere designed especially for children and families. From holiday décor to the overall experience of “boarding” the Polar Express, the project brings the joy of the season directly to the community in a unique and memorable way.
What began as an Eagle Scout service project quickly became a collaborative effort, with volunteers and supporters coming together to help make the vision a reality. The result is a rolling holiday attraction that reflects the heart of Union City — neighbors working together to create something special for others.
The Polar Express bus experience has already drawn excitement from residents and visitors alike, offering a joyful opportunity to celebrate the season, make memories, and support the next generation of community leaders.
Union City is proud to recognize this outstanding example of youth leadership, service, and creativity. Projects like this highlight the positive impact young people can have when they invest their talents back into their hometown.
