Commuter Challenge Celebration Party
We are celebrating the Commuter Challenge’s 25th anniversary with a wrap-up event! Join us after your week of commuting at Kitchen Sync in Winnipeg for some Feast Catering dinner, prizes, and Winnipeg & Green TRIVIA!
What’s the Commuter Challenge? The Commuter Challenge, hosted by Green Action Centre in Manitoba, is a week-long event where we encourage participants to leave their cars at home and opt for sustainable commuting choices, like carpooling with coworkers, biking, walking, or bussing! Participants are encouraged to log their trips on https://gomb.ca for a chance to win prizes. See the Commuter Challenge page for details.
This is a ticketed event. Grab your tickets here.
