Field Trip
WRPPN recently finalized a field trip to PETCO Park as part of the Western U.S. Pollution Prevention Conference. PETCO Park is the home of the San Diego Padres, the crown jewel of downtown San Diego. Not only is PETCO Park architecturally beautiful and magnificently landscaped, but its environmental policies and best management practices have made this stadium one of the most eco-friendly facilities in the entire United States. The tour bus is scheduled to leave the Bahia Hotel on Thursday, October 25 at 1:00 p.m. The tour will take roughly 80 minutes. The cost is $20.00. You can pay at the conference or send a check to (or call with credit card payment):

Shannon Hammond 6100 Neil Road, Suite 400 Reno, NV 89511 (775) 689-6670
