Day 68: Sunny Days in the Fraser Valley

August 22, 2010

This week Katya and I traveled to Surrey, White Rock, Abbotsford, Mission, and Langley and officially finished visiting all the lower mainland facilities!
Did you know that a bunch of John Deere locations in BC accept used oil, filters, and containers? In Abbotsford we visited Friesen Equipment Ltd. which is one of the John Deere stores on the program.

Here I am with one of their giant tractors!

And here’s Katya with a slightly…smaller model
We spent Thursday in the office making calls to a bunch of the facilities that were closed or no one was available when we visited.

Doesn’t hurt that the office has a pretty great view of downtown
We really want to make sure we get feedback from as many facilities as possible. This summer our goal is to visit 480 of the 500+ facilities in the province!
On Monday we will be at the PNE promoting used oil recycling! Come stop by our booth for a visit when you need a break from riding the Playland Roller-coaster (my personal favorite). Feel free to bring by some mini donuts…
