🌍 Happy Earth Day, everyone! 🌞 On a beautiful sunny afternoon on April 20th, a diverse group of us - including faculty, staff, and students from UNBC and CNC, as well as enthusiastic community members - met at Ginters.
Together, we embarked on a joyful ride to Zoe's, guided by Kyle Ross of PG Safe Biking and Ron Gallo from the Prince George Cycling Club, all with the aim of spotlighting the need for better bike infrastructure in PG. 🚴♂️
It was an absolute blast and a fantastic opportunity to connect with our local community! Let's continue advocating for more sustainable practices and nurturing a greener future for all! Stay tuned for another ride in May! 🌿#EarthDayEveryDay #bikeride for #Sustainability – at Prince George, British Columbia
