Palmer Bus Service has been serving the Chokio/Alberta community by safely transporting students since 2009. We safely transport about 150 students each school day in Chokio/Alberta.

Chokio/Alberta School District #771 consists of one K-12 school located in Chokio.

Chokio is located in Stevens County and is about 150 miles west of the Twin Cities and 100 miles south of Fargo and Moorhead. Chokio is a Dakota word meaning “the middle.”

Robert Blom manages the Palmer Bus Service of Chokio site.

Rob grew up and currently lives in Chokio with his wife of 20 years. He was the custodian for Chokio -Alberta schools for 29 years. He has been driving bus since the mid 90's so he is no stranger to the busing industry.

Rob has two kids and also raised his two nephews. Rob has a permanent camp site in the Chokio area where is spends his time fishing and driving around his golf cart!
