Event Report

Once again the community members of Santa Maria were allowed to examine a variety of Electric Vehicles and talk to their respective owner about the in's and out's of EV ownership. There was a steady stream of interested participants to pick up literature, spin the wheel for an EV prize. 
The festive mood of the event carried all through the early evening.
This event really hit's home with those will benefit from the environmental positives of driving an EV.
Our section of the event included educational booths from the Santa Barbara County Air Pollution Control District, Central Coast Clean Cities Coalition, Community Environmental Council and the Santa Barbara / Ventura chapters of the Sierra Club.
