Property's Green Team Leader:
Brett Loehr - 802-748-1500 Mailing Address: 703 US Route 5 South Saint Johnsbury, US 05819 We converted our pool system to a saline system. We've installed timers on nonesential emergency light. For example, when our pool area is closed to the hotel guests we "reduce" (because we cannot eliminate) lighting. Our best program is installing commercial grade timers on our ice machines and video arcade. We are starting to carry "eco-friendly" products in our gift shop. |
