Event Report

It was great to see some new and some familiar faces, AND some nice vehicles!  We shared stories about road trips, daily trips, and any fun drives we've had.  There were many facts shared and local visitors learned about EV's: how to drive and how to charge, etc.  It was a beautiful day!

The rain ended and we had a dry day. Perfect event. Lots of learning about electric vehicles and good times shared.

Event Description

 

Welcome to Carlyle EV EVent: National Drive Electric Week, 2024. This is our seventh year of Drive Electric events. Last year was a great event with 22 cars registered!  Let's make this our biggest year ever. Meet to see and learn electric vehicles. We will have car demonstrations and answer questions. There will be access to the Library, restrooms and simple refreshments including water and soft drinks. There is a lot going on in Carlyle that day including a used book / video/ CD sale at our library.   
 *** Please take a look at the list of the many vehicles already  registered!  More being added every day.   See  you there! 

If you have a plug-in vehicle, please register via the "Participate" button to display and answer questions about your car. There will be a Level 2 Charger and some 110V outlets available for charging, so bring your portable charger if you would like to use the outlets! Afterwards people may choose to cruise their cars past the lake and meet at a local restaurant for lunch. Please contact us if you have any questions. See you there!
