Event Report
Double the attendance of last year as this site is next to the Kaukauna farmers market. We had ample room here to test park assist and summon features on some cars. At least a half dozen show cars got free hydro juice from Kaukauna utilities hydro power plant at this site. We hope to charge more cars next year if more chargers are installed. You can see pictures of the total power of the hydro at this site called badger plant on our photo link as well as more shots of our activities. Please join us again at this site next year for even more cars and activities.
