Calling all NMC employees interested in participating in this year’s annual Smart Commute Week – save money, increase your physical activity, enjoy free breakfasts, and build camaraderie with others in the community. Organizations compete for highest participation during Smart Commute week. There’s a chance to win prizes, and you get to take advantage of the Smart Commute breakfasts on your way to work!
Smart Commute Week, which is part of TART Trails’ year-round Smart Commute Program, educates and encourages everyone in the community to consider options for getting around town. TART Trails challenges you to walk, bike, carpool, ride public transit or any creative form of ‘smart’ transportation!
Participation is easy:
• Send an email to myoung@nmc.edu by Friday, May 25 indicating you would like to join the NMC Smart Commute Team
• Each morning, June 4-7, email me your Smart Commute miles (to and from work) and transportation methods (i.e. carpool, bike, walk)
• Can’t commit to Smart Commuting all 4 days? Don’t let that stop you from signing up!
• Friday’s Smart Commute miles will not count toward our team totals but everyone is encouraged to attend the breakfast and finish the week in grand Smart Commute fashion!
