T.O.’s Eco-Chase has businesses green with envy
Quietly operating under the radar in Toronto is a Green Networking community. Made up of businesses and organizations this group of professionals has been promoting things green for years.
Meeting semi-regularly; these greens try to combine business with ecology by interacting with each other. A new idea has arisen to take this to the next level.
In the years since the amazing race came on the air their have been a myriad of imitations in Toronto. Most have been no more than extravagant scavenger hunts with little more to offer the competitors than blisters and a day off work.
Now there is something new!
With TO’s Eco-Chase, teams are challenged to learn about our city’s green projects while they work on team-building.
More and more businesses are looking for ways to help their employees work as a well oiled machine. We’ve all seen the staff outings at bowling alleys and go-kart tracks. The Amazing Race formula has proven to be a winner in this regard. The continuing trend to make business green friendly makes TO’s Eco-Chase the perfect combination.
By part-taking in the event participants will be exposed to some of Toronto’s best sustainability features – some of which are 1st class sites.
With sponsors ranging from smaller organizations like Green Here and newcomers like Ethical Deal to national treasures like Mountain Equipment Co-Op and participants signing up in droves, this event promises to change the way Toronto thinks Green.
Through friendly competition you are guaranteed to leave the event with a sense of pride, community and readiness to make a difference. Sponsors, volunteers and participants are encouraged to get on board for this brand new way to go green and get to know Green Toronto.
