Rothbury project visit-party with a purpose gaining steam
March 25th, 2008 | Published in News
Hey folks-
I’m just back from a site visit to Rothbury, Michigan, checking out the location for our planned installation at Shelby High School, in conjunction with the ROTHBURY festival.
We’re planning to do a minimum 6 kilowatt installation there this summer–and perhaps a lot more. We’ve heard a whole lot of the people buying tickets to the event are “upselling” their ticket, with the added donations going directly to adding even more power to this project. We’ll also likely be there during the event offering solar-powered recharging for cell phones and PDAs to participants.
Meanwhile, the crew is making good headway on the Natchez Elementary School in Wadsworth, and we’re lining up more projects to follow right on the heals of that one–it’s going to be a busy year!
Thanks to everyone for their support and donations, they make all this work possible.
