This Wednesday, June 20 kicks off the 9th Annual Clean Commute Week in Durango, CO. According to the event’s organizers, the City of Durango, it’s all about encouraging “citizens to get out of their single-occupant vehicle and try a more sustainable mode of transportation by commuting via public transportation, carpooling, walking, and bicycling.” It’s the perfect week to shake up your normal routines by switching up how you get to and from work.
There are a heap of activities taking place this year, including the Summer Business Commuter Challenge. It’s a week long opportunity to challenge your fellow coworkers to commute clean from Wednesday, June 20 through Wednesday, June 28. It’s a chance to engage in a little friendly competition and see who among our local businesses can walk, bike, bus or carpool the most. There are some perks to participating in Clean Commute Week, other than the genuine satisfaction that you are supporting sustainable transportation. On June 27th, stop by either Animas Chocolate Co. or Mercy Regional Medical Center to receive a free t-shirt, snacks, breakfast food, coffee and tea in honor of Clean Commute Week. You can also enter to win raffle prizes from our local sponsors of the event. For a full schedule of events, click here.
