We unfortunately had a pretty poor weather at our event (rainy and windy) so that watered the attendance down a lot.

Event Description
We will have our Twin Cities
National Plug In Day 2013 on Saturday, September 28, 1-4 pm, at the Lower Capitol Mall in front of the State
Capitol building in Saint Paul. MLK Street will be closed so plug-in vehicle
owners are invited to show their vehicles on the street and share their
experiences with the public.
If you are interested in plug-in vehicles, come to see the cars and talk with
owners. We will also have information about public charging infrastructure
and electric utility company representatives sharing information about
renewable energy programs and PEV charging rate structures and incentives.
Check out the list of vehicles coming to this event below. This event is free and open to everyone. Visit www.pluginconnect.com/Photos.php to see some photos of last year's event. Hope to see you
there.
This event is organized by Minnesota Plug-in Vehicle Owners' Circle www.pluginconnect.com/mnpevowners.html and www.facebook.com/groups/mnpevowners/ .
