July 16: NOVA and Green Drinks at ChargeCar

A huge thanks is in order to everyone who braved the dreadful weather and to come to last week's event! It was excellent to see lots of enthusiastic people interact at our open house, as well as after the screening of "Gasland." If you couldn't make it, there will be two more summer events on the next two Fridays (July 23rd and 30th) for anyone interested in any aspect of ChargeCar.

We would like to invite you to our next community event and cookout at/outside the Electric Garage, in collaboration with Pittsburgh Green Drinks. At 7 p.m., Green Drinks, a freeform social group for people working on environmental issues, will be visiting the Electric Garage; then at 9 p.m. we will be projecting the 2008 NOVA documentary directed by Joe Seamans, "Car of the Future". We are very excited to say that Joe will be joining us at the Garage to introduce and talk about the film.
