This Friday (Halloween) is Walk Ride Day so have some fun with it. Dress up in costume or dress up in Green and Orange and reduce your carbon BIGFoot print for the day.
Wear green, go green, be green...feel good about yourself- and get LOOT from participating sponsors (see list below)!
Find alternate transport other than your gas-powered fume-emitting car -- walk, bus, train, bike, or carpool...(yeah, it's a car, but at least you're sharing it...) Always the last Friday of every month
To become a sponsor visit For Sponsors.
