As an initiative supported by Lakehead’s Wellness Strategy and the Sustainability Plan, the Office of Sustainability invites you to participate in the Tbay On the Move Active Commute Challenge this June. Not only will you have the chance to win fantastic prizes, but you'll also contribute to a healthier environment and community

The Active Commute Challenge is a friendly, city-wide competition that encourages daily commuters to choose sustainable modes of transportation for the benefit of their health and the environment. For the month of June, hundreds of employees across Thunder Bay will swap their vehicle and cycle, walk, run, bus, carpool, rollerblade, telecommute, or even paddle their way to work! Any form of active transportation counts.

Registration is open--when registering please select or enter Lakehead University as your workplace.

Any employee who logs at least one commute where they did not drive alone will be entered to win a weekly prize. Prizes will also be awarded in various categories.

Let’s increase our employee participation! Register today and make us the worklace with the highest participation.
