Event Report
Local liberal politicians were worthless. Wouldnt return any phone calls, emails or tweets. This "progressive" City even denied my permit for the 2nd year in a row. Not sure I am going to host another one when our leftist leaders cant even get onboard and support the event. Ithaca is supposed to be so "green" and environmentally conscious.... Our 23 year old Mayer only wants to use this position to climb higher in the US government.
So many road blocks. Tired of fighting...
Event Description
What:
National Drive Electric Week is a week long event that happens in cities all across the United States. NDEW was started many years ago with the goal of raising awareness of electric vehicles. It is a showcase in which current electric vehicle owners show off their cars and offer test drives to show the public the many benefits of going all electric. The event is open to EV owners, their guests, and the public.

T-shirts!:
We are having a limited run of "Ithaca is Electric" t-shirts made. Shirts have been ordered and after the pre-orders have been filled we will have around 10 left of various sizes. Price for Sm, Med, Large and XL are $19 each. XXL and larger sizes can be ordered and potentially even made the same day over at T-Shirt Express on the Commons. We only make a couple bucks on each shirt but it will help cover event costs.
