Making some green while being green. That is just what happened at our
Marriott Fort Worth when the local power company ran a promotion. They
purchased $5,500 worth of energy saving lights and received back a rebate
check for $7,200! Pictured here accepting the check from the utility
company reps are our own Chief Engineer Paul Roche and General Manager
Jim Campbell. |

Earth Day is a great time for education. The Sheraton Ft.
Lauderdale held a contest to demonstrate how auto emissions
affect air quality. Each contestant placed a clean white sock
over his or her car’s exhaust and ran the engine for 30 seconds.
The contestant with the dirtiest sock won a free car tune-up,
while the one with the cleanest sock won a two night stay at
a resort. Pictured are your winners Kylie Binns, Reservations
Coordinator, with the cleanest sock and Amie Meyer, Accounting
Manager, with the dirtiest sock. |

Kris Franz, a member of the bell staff at the The Westin St. Louis, was given a request from an in-house guest to shred several legal documents. Kris decided to create a holiday snowman out of all the recycled shredded documents. He even created the arms, buttons and pipe
out of the binder seams! Way to go Kris! Remember REUSE is a big part of conservation and I am sure this decoration will get guests thinking about conservation. |

It’s a bird, it’s a plane … no just Bob Holesko dressed
as Buzz the Energy Bee. Bob is with Grace Dias, dressed
as the Safety Bee, out on Halloween to remind everyone
to save energy and bee safe. Bob won the HEI corporate
costume contest. Next time Bob visits your hotel look
closely at his skin. He still has not been able to get all of
that green off! |
