It is easy to be green-er (and generous!)

It is almost the end of the season... Only one more race tomorrow!
(more than 120 registered @ Riverport Du! Yeah!)

Some TNS members are taking a few green initiatives:
- recycling of timing chips
- donation of used running shoes
- re-using of safety pins!

If you have any of those items (which I know you all do), please bring them to the banquet, on Nov 6. If for any reasons you can't make it to the banquet, please bring them to the race tomorrow. I will collect chips, pins and shoes.

What will happen with those items?
Chips: Will be send back to Atlantic Chip Timing, who will then send them to a recycling program
Pins: Will be used at races next year! (No reason why each RD should buy new pins after all)
Shoes: Will be donated to Luke MacDonald @ Aerobic First. The shoes will be distributed to people who unfortunately, at this point in their life, can't afford running shoes.

We are very lucky to be able to participate in multi-sport events, let's share our chance!

Thanks, Merci!

MC
