Recycling Program for Ski Gear

[Little Lightning]

Yesterday Kim Walker of Outdoor Divas told me this is being piloted here in Colorado because of the high number of skiers and snowboarders. If successful the program will expand to other areas.

That is so cool.

Excellent! I'll be spreading the word around here for sure.

Hope that expands. There are alot of non shaped skis hanging out in closets that aren't good for skiing anymore, but will make great chairs etc. I know from doing ski swaps!! Way to go to reduce, reuse and recycle!

Great idea, I wish we had a recycling program here. I've had a pair of broken skis in the corner for like a year that I've been using as a hat rack - hanging my caps off the tips. I keep saying I'm going to take one and hang it on the wall with some hooks on it to make a real coat/hat rack out of it, but that has yet to happen.

And if a single Lotta Luv turned up - SkiNurse would get a pair again .......

This is a great idea, I'm all for recycling and felt terrible last time I had to get rid of a pair of skis and knew there should be a better way.

That's a great idea. I hope this catches on here in Canada.
