Confirmed <br />displays include four cars, two solar PV, one heat pump, one solar thermal, <br />one geothermal, and one electric vehicle charging station. RMLD will have <br />two tables. Laurie Ann is still looking for a biomass stove vendor and Mike is <br />pursuing IBEW local 103 small wind power. Ron volunteered to contact a <br />biofuel dealer. We may also try to get a residential combined heat & power <br />(CHP) vendor - Climate Energy was the company that attended an Earth Day <br />event several years ago with this technology. If we don't have enough <br />participants to fill all space, the Committee could have its own table, perhaps <br />promoting the tree planting program. <br />o Publicity is on- going. Ron reported that the announcement was published in <br />St. Agnes and St. Athanasius church bulletins. He also put it on RCTV and <br />obtained assistance of Laura Gemme, Town Clerk, who send out an email. <br />Flyers have been posted at many locations in town. Laurie Ann asked Priscilla <br />Gottwald to send notice in RMLD bills. Gina sent the flyer to RMHS teachers <br />and chemistry teacher Jennifer Thomas will give her students extra credit for <br />attending. <br />o Committee member volunteered to bring refreshments for Earth Day table <br />participants. <br />• Joan - juice <br />• Gina - apples <br />• Ron - bagels and cream cheese, Box of Joe, cream and sugar <br />Page 1 1 <br />2013 -09 -03 <br />
