Dear Student Council Members,
RE: Commuter Challenge Student Involvement InitiativeHigh School Sustainable Commute Competition
The Commuter Challenge Week of events has traditionally involved those who commute to and from work.
In recent years, students have also been encouraged to participate in this event which aims to reduce theamount of greenhouse gasses produced by the Hamilton community. We believe that this is an importantmessage and learning opportunity for students and believe that your participation is vital.
We are asking that you or your entire High School participates in our Sustainable Commute Competition.For this competition we require that your high school develops a 24 x 36 inch poster or art on canvas orvideo project (no longer than 5 minutes in length), which outlines the following:
How your high school plans to participate in the Commuter Challenge What your high school is doing to encourage sustainable transportation for students and teachers
What forms of transportation are being encouraged (beyond that of the single occupancy vehicle)
The level of importance/non-importance that this issue has in the lives of students and the citizens ofHamilton
Strategies as to how your high school can encourage other citizens in the city to chose more activeforms of transportation.
Note: Each High School can not submit more than 3 projects
Schools are to send their submissions (electronically or by mail) to the City of Hamilton for evaluation. Theschool with the most innovative and creative project will receive a fabulous prize!
Deadline for submission must be no later than June 5, 2009 at 4:00 pm.
