Event Report

This was a tag-team event, in conjunction with other local organizations, so a significant community outreach opportunity, but without much work to promote electric vehicles.  No EV-related talks, presentations, or public officials.  However, the combined Earth Day event had plenty to offer:  Hanford Reach Museum, poetry contests, music, food, presentations, scavenger hunts, local officials, electric bus, electric bicycles, etc.  Also, I forgot to take any pictures.

Event Description

 

On Saturday, April 22, 2023 from 10:00 am to 3:00 pm, there will be a showcase of various plug in electric vehicles displayed at the REACH Museum, 1943 Columbia Park Trail, Richland, WA.  The EV showcase is sponsored by the Mid-Columbia Electric Vehicle Association, in conjunction with the REACH Museum’s Earth Day Celebration.  Sponsors include Battelle, Ben Franklin Transit, Sustainable Tri-Cities, and Citizen’s Climate Education. All events are free, family-friendly, and open to the public.   For more information, https://visitthereach.us/event/earth-day/

This is a pivotal time for electric vehicles as manufacturers continue to ramp up production, improve features, charging capabilities, and driving range.  In addition, recently approved federal legislation provides incentives for the entire supply chain, from mining and manufacturing, to businesses and the general public.  Countries around the world are transitioning to a 100% electric transportation system and you can too.  Now is the perfect time to learn more about the benefits of driving an electric vehicle.  Charge on!
