Event Report
This year was a fun and festive event, and according to past attendees and organizers - the best one yet!
It would not have been possible without our community planning partners, exhibitors, and sponsors!
Attendees enjoyed live music, food, family-friendly activities, and speeches by Henrietta Town Supervisor Stephen Schultz and NY State Senator and Chairman of the Senate Transportation Committee Jeremy A. Cooney.
This year in addition to 73 owner EVs and 21 dealer EV models, our event featured:
- a Waymo autonomous vehicle!
- a box truck from Wegman's!
- a Blue Bird school bus!
- an electric city bus!
- EV sprinter vans!
- motorcycles!
- a variety of mowers that attendees could test ride !
- and a variety of landscaping equipment!
We're happy to see the 'Ev'olution continue to gain momentum, and looking forward to what the next event will bring ~
See you in 2025!
