Resource Conservation Manitoba is sponsoring The Commuter Challenge, a yearly event that encourages people to use environmentally friendly forms of transportation from June 1 to 7, 2008 .  It is a cross-Canada event that features friendly competition between similar-sized cities, towns, communities and workplaces.

Participants log their green kilometers online and are entered to win exciting prizes such as a fantastic bike from Olympia Cycle & Ski and gear from Mountain Equipment Co-op!  Participants can be individuals or workplaces.  If you would like to coordinate the Challenge in your workplace, we offer training and resources to help you every step of the way!
