Hi Guys,
Its a great initiative being taken by the CTC to clean up the beaches, So We wanted to urge everybody volunteering and supporting this event to take a minute and check our GREEN initiative to help the environment and make earth a better place for living...
Please visit: http:www.route11.in and join a carpool or share your rides with the fellow mates who will be joining us at the beach on the 16th and also use it as much as we can.
Also support us by liking us on facebook and twitter and propagating it among all your family and friends.
Hope to see many of us coming in groups that day...
My Dearest fellas,
Really feel awesome to learn that we still have a huge hearted nature loving people around us. We have a wonderful coastline to pride yet we disregard Mother Nature of her pristine beauty. Its not that we keep coming back to clean up, instead we must inculcate the habit of discipline amongst our brethen who has highest disregard for the society. Its really painful to see such a lovely city being reduced to a garbage yard every day. People throw, spit, urinate and do everything a person should never do in public. We boast of rich culture but we lack utter discipline be it in mind or in action. I request every parent to ensure that their offsprings inherit the best of social culture and we must hand over a more beautiful planet to the future.
Kudos to Mr. Peter who has taken up the great initiative to save our environment. I work of SBI who has an immense workforce. I would be glad if you could make me a member of your club and let me give a helping hand in your endeavour. Looking forward to meet you.
This is an awesome initiative :):) We are proud :)
Keep us the good job:):) happy to join this initiative for 3rd consecutive year:)
This is a great initiative. Happy and lucky to be a part of it for the 4th consecutive year along with my corporate and NGO friends.
Thanks CTC for this initiative. Whole event was well organized. Keep up the good work. Hope, we will better this record, next year!!!
