TREES ARE FOR GLADES AT RESORTS OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES

TREES ARE FOR GLADES AT RESORTS OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES
by Cali Sammel / Thursday, 15 October 2015 / Published in Press Releases

For Immediate Release:  October 13th, 2015

TREES ARE FOR GLADES AT RESORTS OF THE CANADIAN ROCKIES

Resorts of the Canadian Rockies (RCR), Canada’s largest private ski resort operator, has committed to doing more to lessen their environmental footprint.

For this fall season leading up to winter, RCR, which includes Fernie Alpine Resort, Kicking Horse Mountain Resort and Kimberley Alpine Resort in British Columbia, will not be printing a brochure for the very first time.  Instead of printing brochures to hand out at trade shows, the company will focus on re-directing people to their online brochure, while re-investing funds into planting trees with a non-profit organization, Trees for the Future.  For every email sign-up, RCR has committed to planting one tree.

The campaign is called Trees are for Glades.

All information like trail maps, vacation packages and town information can be easily found through their websites.  By asking for email signups, it helps to teach consumers to use more sustainable methods to gather information. The company is in hopes that it sheds light on the amount of unnecessary paper that is consumed on a daily basis.

Over 75,000 pieces of paper will be saved during this campaign, and RCR’s goal is to plant 10,000 trees.

Other environmental commitments: RCR has recently implemented an online waiver system for season passes, has worked to conserve water and energy and implemented recycling programs.

More Information on Trees are for Glades can be found here: www.treesareforglades.com.
