Any news or events planned for this year?

Yes indeed and thanks for asking. I send out news and announcements to the group once a month. If you send me a private message with your email address, I'd be happy to add you to my group list and keep you in the loop].

Here is what we have planned so far:



Then on Sunday, September 13th, we will be having our biggest event of the year, our 3rd annual National Drive Electric Week event at Guptill's.

Thanks to the members of the Capital Districk EV group who are currently participating in the branchezvous test rides and EV parade in Montreal. It's only the first of three days, but their presence is already well appreciated. I will be there tomorrow.

You are very welcome Berlino. We are having a great time here in Montreal. I've never been in a place that had so many EV's at once!

Most EV groups hibernate all winter but not ours. The Albany Capital District EV Drivers had not one, but two meets this winter. On December 29th we caravanned through Washington Park's Capital Holiday Lights festival. It would have been great to have an i-Miev join us.









Then on January 26th, we were invited to the Madison Theater's EV Expo night, that featured the screening of George Pakenham's "Idle Threat" documentary, which deals with enforcing the 3 minute curbside idling law in New York City. We had six EVs in attendance, a Ford Focus EV, a VW E-Golf, a Honda Fit EV, a BMW i3, and two Nissan LEAFs.





That's the producer and star of the "Idle Threat" documentary, George Pakenham on the left.
