21 Bags of Trash
Sounds like a lot, doesn’t it? Well, when 35 traceurs get together with “three brooms, three dustpans, two (very) small rakes, six pairs of rubber work gloves, and about four thousand gallons of elbow grease”, gathering up 21 bags of trash from a favorite training ground doesn’t feel like quite as much work.
Rochester Parkour held their first Leave no Trace/ Beginner’s Parkour Workshop earlier this month at Manhattan Square Park in Rochester, New York. It was a smashing success, drawing out a humongous crowd to not only learn about Parkour, but also spend time cleaning up their training environment. Read more about it at their blog!
We’re thrilled that so many communities lately have been embracing the Leave No Trace idea and integrating it into their jams. This is something that is really important for Parkour in the long term and really just comes down to common sense. Has your scene been teaching about LNT? Let us know in the comments!
