Moshan Productions’ mission is to produce high quality events with as little environmental impact as possible. Some of the things that we are doing to achieve our “green” mission are; reducing paper usage by handling all registration online, offering high-end, technical shirts for our finishers made of recycled polyester (from Greenlight Organic), creating only a limited amount of posters and fliers and printing on 100% recycled post consumer waste paper, separating garbage from recyclable materials at the finish line and aid stations (recycling and trash services provided by West Valley Waste and GreenWaste), recycling all paper cups, using race bags that are made out of partially recycled plastic and are re-usable (generously provided by Whole Foods Market), and not using individual plastic bottles for water.
In addition, we will be hosting a recycling program for your old running shoes. This program not only takes your shoes so that they don't end up in the land fills, but will also benefit great causes by either recycling the materials for various projects or by distributing the shoes to individuals in need of a running shoe (please note, at this time we can only accept athletic shoes).
In order to make this a green and enjoyable event for all, please dispose of any gel wrappers, bottles, or any other garbage you may want to shed yourself of during the race at any of the aid stations throughout to race. Keep in mind, volunteers will need to collect any trash left on the course, please dispose of your items as close to the aid stations as possible.
We hope you'll enjoy our efforts of creating an environmentally-friendly 5K and 10K race experience for you. Thank you for choosing the Geenlight Organic Go Green St.Patrick’s Day 5K/10K Run as one of your races this year!
