Thanks, Bruce. I actually helped Mark Hayes coordinate this last year. He retired last year, so this year falls to me to coordinate. I'm hoping that Mark's travel schedule will allow him to show up with his restored and converted Bug Eye Sprite again this year.
If people are interested in attending but need a charge, we also have options on site: - Before and after the EVent, we have 3 charging locations on site. Each one is a 110V/20A circuit. - We can provide a limited amount of charging during the fair. Probably 2 or 3 20A circuits could be made available during the fair. We haven't set the hours yet, but I expect it will be similar to last year, 11 am - 2 pm. Will know more in a couple weeks. This really is a good chance to see a wide variety of vehicles, compare implementations, and catch up with friends.
