Mundellians Participate in Run for World Water

Mundy the Frog in his Run for World Water gear

Mundy the frog, many staff, and family and friends, enjoyed a beautiful day downtown at the 9th Annual Run for World Water.

The event, held August 22, was a 5K walk/run held at the National Institute for Fitness & Sport. Proceeds from the event support the international nonprofit, Water for People, an organization that is committed to creating a world where everyone has access to clean drinking water. This was the third year Mundell was a sponsor for the Run as well as ‘recruiting’ a motivated team.

A great time was had by all – good weather, good cause and team time. In addition to some friendly competition, Staff Environmental Scientist Laura Barnhart made the third best time of the run among women. Congrats Laura!

Think Local this 4th of July

Let’s face it – it’s hard to “green” a fireworks celebration, but here are some ideas for an environmentally friendly 4th of July

Instead of using paper plates at the party, bring out your everyday dishes and serving utensils. Have labels or charms available for guests to put on their drinking glasses.
Ride your bike to a local fireworks celebration or have your own by banging pots and pans (the kids will love it), and having a star-spangled sing along.
Buy your meat from the farmers market or purchase local poultry or vegetarian options from the grocery store.
Use a propane grill which produces about half the greenhouse emissions as charcoal.
