During last year’s Challenge, Oregonians saved 131,400 pounds of CO2 from going into Oregon’s air by reducing car trips and working from home. It’s simple: when we reduce CO2, we get cleaner air, a better quality of life, and healthier communities.

Join Mt Hood Meadows to make an even greater impact this year! 

Here’s how to get started:
1. Create an account in the Get There tool or log in here
2. Complete achievements from Oct. 4th – 17th
3. Get entered into weekly and grand prize drawings.

You could win: 
– Local prizes like Mt. Hood Meadows lift tickets! 
– Bigger statewide prizes like $500 cash cards!
– $1500 towards a folding bike!

Wellness Space

Breast Cancer is the most common cancer among women or people with mammary glands in the United States. Every 2 minutes, a woman or person with mammary glands is diagnosed with breast cancer. 

– 1 out of 8 aggressive breast cancers develop in women or people with mammary gland younger than 45.
– 2 out of 3 aggressive breast cancers are found in women or people with mammary gland 55 or older. 

The most common risk factor for breast cancer is being a woman or person with mammary glands, other factors include excessive alcohol intake, lack of physical activity, obesity, and hormone replacement therapy. Your risk is doubled if you have a relative with breast cancer, and it’s 5 times higher if two of them develop breast cancer. 

There are many ways you can reduce your risk: regular physical activity, a diet high in fruits, vegetables, and calcium-rich dairy products, but low in red and/or processed meats.
You should also conduct monthly self-breast exams, get a yearly breast exam from your doctor, and yearly mammograms starting at age 40 (younger if you have a family history). Frequent breast cancer screenings reduce the risk of death from breast cancer. Early detection saves lives.
