Good News Friday!

Late last month, I wrote on this blog about how Imagine! was going to be participating in Way To Go Tober, a fun way to encourage Imagine! employees to try new, smarter ways to commute.

The results to date have far exceeded my expectations (which were high to begin with).

As of Thursday, October 25, 138 Imagine! employees have:

Logged 1,235 smart commute trips totaling 12,836 miles.

Burned 53,217 calories.

Reduced 3.7 tons of CO2.

And saved $4,345.

These impressive stats didn't just catch my eye. Last week, a TV crew from CBS News Channel 4 in Denver came up to Lafayette to find out the secret to our success.

We’ve had a lot of fun with this competition, and some Imagine! employees even helped encourage their coworkers’ participation by agreeing to appear in some (admittedly goofy) videos.

Although the month isn’t quite over, it is obvious that Imagine! employees have fully embraced this opportunity to give back to the community where we work. I am proud of them, and glad to have been part of this effort to save money, reduce stress, and help clear the air.
