CWM Team Member Helps Clean Up Snowless Ski Resort

What do you get when you combine a group of dedicated volunteers bent on cleaning up the environment with a ski resort that has no snow? A clean, green mountain!

However bad that joke may have been, there is nothing funny about Amanda Morris’ willingness to help clean up the environment. On Sunday, October 11, Amanda (E.D. for Placerville, CA 95667) and several friends and family members were among the group of volunteers who participated in Sierra-At-Tahoe Ski Resort’s Clean Up Day.

Despite a busy schedule, Amanda took the time to recruit her own set of volunteers as well as plan her strategy for participating in the event, which took place in Lake Tahoe, CA. We are happy to report that everything went very well and that Amanda represented the Clean World Movement with class!

“I attended this event with some friends and family that I had gathered and it was a great success,” Amanda said in en e-mail to us. “They [resort personnel] ran the ski lifts and had groups go down the mountain and pick up trash.”

Amanda was kind enough to provide us with some pictures of the event, which we are happy to share with you below.

The CWM team would like to say well done to Amanda for her hard work and commitment to the environment. We appreciate her and her group’s willingness to make the world a cleaner, better place, and thank them for the great job they did as CWM ambassadors during the event. Thanks to them, the mountain is clean, and all the ski resort needs now is some fresh powder!
