    I'm glad I had the opportunity to participate in this EcoChallenge! I found it helpful to complete my dashboard each day and to consider if I was actually compliant in actions that I had previously viewed as things I consistently did. I found I still had opportunities to improve my habits. Thank you to the organizers and team captains for their efforts and leadership!
