When it comes to the Commuter Challenge, the real prize is the sustainable commutes we made along the way– but that doesn’t mean we don’t also have a bunch of prizes from great local businesses! Whether you’re walking, cycling, carpooling, telecommuting or taking the bus – you have a chance to win one of the great prizes below by commuting sustainably!
A huge thank you to our prize donors, Great Outdoors Comedy Festival, Rainbow Stage, and Fort Whyte for their contributions!
Also, thank you to our sponsors, Tire Stewardship Manitoba, Assiniboine Credit Union, Manitoba Blue Cross, IG Wealth Management, and Manitoba Hydro for making the Commuter Challenge possible!
