Event Report
Despite the dreary weather resulting from the hurricane aftermath that reached Kentucky, the enthusiasm we observed from those who attended was remarkable! Only several folks had to decline and we were able to share our EVs through our experienced EV owners as well as the dynamic dealers who enthusiastically provided ride 'n drives and helped some of our visitors decide on how an EV would fit their needs and lifestyle. Thank you to everyone for your support. Our Evolve KY planners joined with the Tesla Owners of Kentucky to offer conveniences and layouts that made our event run more smoothly. Our public attendance was dismally low because of the storm.
