Where trash picking earns you a free night stay


Here's something new...

The
Antlers at Vail lodge in Vail, Colo., is offering a weekend escape that blends local voluntourism with premium accommodations this June. Called the "Trash Pickin' and Picnickin' Package" (no, it's not a joke), the hotel is offering one night of a two-night stay free when guests participate in the resort's annual highway clean-up program.

Available this June 20-21, the package includes a Sunday-morning guided trash pick-up (approximately three hours long) with a picnic lunch following at the Antlers pool area. Visitors new to town can also take in the Healthy Homes Tour and Fair on June 20, which showcases eco ideas and products to take home. For details, call 970-476-0954.
