- 2. 2 To further the SMF cause, we launched the SHANE MCCONKEY ECOCHALLENGE Shane McConkey OUR INSPIRATION Global warming isnโt cool, but protecting the environment is. So in the Fall of 2013, SMF invited students across the nation to enter the first Shane McConkey EcoChallenge. The response was inspiring and the resulting projects showed an overwhelming dedication to the betterment of our Planet from kids, teachers and parents. We discovered what we like to consider the Cycle of Awesomeness. The EcoChallenge challenged kids to look around their homes, schools and communities for environmental problems. In teams, the kids problem-solved solutions to the issues they discovered. The teams took action to make a positive impact. Students, parents and educators were challenged, inspired, educated and motivated. Shane McConkey was a pro skier, a geek, a goofball, a movie star and a guy who believed we could make the world a better place. Most of all, he cared about protecting our planet. The Shane McConkey Foundation (SMF) carries on Shaneโs legacy by supporting efforts to protect and promote children, animals and the environment. The Shane McConkey Foundation WATCH THE VIDEO
