Hello Everyone,
Here's an email I received about an event coming up in September. If anyone has an EV to bring to this event, please contact Bobette Wolesensky. Bobette would also like knowledgeable people to talk about EVs at the event. [EMAIL PROTECTED] I am writing today to find out if you are available on Wednesday, September 24, 2008 from 9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. to be part of a "Transportation Transformation" event at Palm Beach Community College in Boca. Here's the plan: * 9 a.m. - 12:30 p.m. we will have a display of "alternative transportation options" on display in the parking lot west of the student center We hope to have the following: o Your Scion (if you can come) or some other electric vehicle if you can't come (hopefully someone from your club can be there if you can't!) o Smart Car/ZAP/Xebra from Foreign Affairs Auto o A bicycle (road safe, etc.) from Tropic Bikes o A scooter from the Vespa dealer o A hybrid driven by one of our faculty members * 9:45-10:30 the displayers listed above would each do a 5-10 minute presentation about the benefits of their type of alternative transportation AND would offer students information about what needs to happen to bring that alternative to scale (i.e., what needs to happen to make the type of battery technology you use something available for widespread adoption?) * 11-12:15 Panel Presentation with reps from the City of Boca, City of Delray, Tri-Rail talking about what local political entities are doing to make alternatives available Best Regards, R. Andrew Roddy Public Relations Director Florida Electric Auto Association
