Here I am in jazzy New Orleans for the PCMA Conference! My first day included a meeting of PCMA’s 2009 Green Meeting Task Force which recently formed. More on that later, but first a creative idea to share….

When I arrived back in my room, there was a pedometer and a note waiting for me. The note said to use the pedometer in this “fabulous walkable city” between now and noon on Wednesday. Then we can take our pedometer to conference check-in to show how many steps we have logged. The person with the most steps will win a trip to the New Orlean’s Jazz Fest. Now that is incentive!

As they say, “Good for your health, good for the environment and good for our future” Skip the shuttle buses, it’s time to walk!
