This is a better price -- free exhibit space. I hope that more will attend.

Perhaps they can man the booth in exchange for the parking fees. -----Original Message----- From: Bill Young [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, October 11, 2007 10:49 AM To: Susan Schleith Cc: Dave Bessette; 'Colleen Kettles'; 'Susan Pecuch'; Szaro, Jennifer; 'Craig Williams'; 'Frank Leslie'; 'Joe Fischer'; 'Bob Stonerock' Subject: Re: meeting info - AFV for FREA - more stuff HI Sorry, but I too, will be out of state. I have a meeting in New Hampshire with NESEA and Nancy Hazard and Drew Gelette about next years SunDay Challenge planned for Oct 3. Bruce Chesson and Charles Walden and Andrew Roddy would like to bring their AFVs, but do not have the funding to pay to exhibit. Some of the people that would bring cars have to have somewhere to stay the night, therefor have to pay for hotels. They also have to get their cars charged, so they are coming back to FSEC where there is an electric vehicle charging station. For hobbiest, this is a great expense, even if the expo was free. If there were charging stations in Orlando, that would help. Before OUC starting building their new building on Orange ave, there was a charging station in the parking lot that I used for my Toyota Rav4 EV that Len Mancinni had install for me. The PV Disaster trailer is available if you want it for display. Bruce Chesson will be there saturday and may be willing to talk about AFVs.
