Happy Earth Day from HOCR 🌎 We’re proud to keep making race weekend greener every year ♻️ Special shoutout to our Sustainability Committee for leading the charge!
At HOCR 2025, they helped divert 7.5 tons of material to compost and we diverted more food waste to compost this year than ever before.
We hit 60% diversion this year, showing how small actions add up to a big impact year after year.
