Victoria Tourism Companies Join Forces for April 22, 2010 Earth Day and TLC!

Five Star Charters the whale watching company I have worked with in past years has joined forces with Adrena Line Zip Tours to donate their earnings on April 22, Earth Day 2010, to The Land Conservancy's Wild Hills and Beaches Campaigns help purchase Western Forest Products lands in the Jordan River and Sooke Hills area.

Five Star Charters will be running a special 'Earth Day' cruise at 2 pm this coming Thursday April 22nd and all the proceeds from that cruise will be donated to the TLC's campaign. In addition to donations from cruise earnings there will be a donation box in Five Star's office at 651 Humboldt Street (how to get there). Adrena Line Zip Tours will donate 20$ of each zip line sold on Earth Day.

  1. Great post and pics Kyla! All of us can make a difference by reducing our dependency on fossil fuels. No question. But motivating everyone to action is the challenge...
