Event Report

We had an "information table/tent" promoting electric transportation, recycling and green energy initiatives.
We partnered with a local Kia dealer to promote EVs.  Kia of Claremont displayed an EV9, and local EV owners showcased Tesla 3, Tesla Y, Nissan Leaf, and Chevy Bolt EUV.  This was a first time "trial" event at a new location (local restaurant). Our poor attendance was the result of no other nearby/collateral Earth Day events. (We had another Drive Electric Earth Day event in a different location the following weekend that will be reported separately.) If we hold another Davenport event next year (outside of traditional Earth Day celebrations), we will most likely look for a different location centered around other existing park and/or public activities.
