Electric vehicle (EV) and clean energy enthusiasts are invited to Watts & Wheels, a free community event set for 11 a.m. to 3p.m. Saturday, Sept. 27, at The Wild Center in Tupper Lake. Third Act Upstate NY, The Wild Center and the North Country Clean Energy Hub co-host this second annual EV celebration to raise awareness about the benefits of electric vehicles, solar power and other clean energy technologies.
The festivities build on last year’s event, which drew over 1,600 people to The Wild Center.
Both indoor and outdoor areas of The Wild Center will be open and free for all during this event. Attendees are encouraged to reserve their complimentary ticket online. Attendees will have the opportunity to talk to local EV owners and experts showcasing their vehicles and visit with community organizations focused on solar power and other clean energy technologies. There will be many family-friendly activities, such as an electric school bus tour, live music, a smoothie bike, and “solar bugs.”
