Join GRID Alternatives for Plug In to GRID! - an exclusive afternoon party to learn about plug-in vehicles while raising money to bring renewable energy to low-income families. We will have dozens of electric vehicles on hand to check out and in some cases test ride or test drive - high-end sportscars like the Tesla Roadster, futuristic prototypes displayed by Stanford and PG&E, plug-in hybrid conversions, motorcycles, scooters, neighborhood electric vehicles and much more. We'll also have leaders from the venture capital and EV worlds on hand to talk about the future of electric transportation, including Josh Becker from New Cycle Capital; Sherry Boschert from Plug In America; Anup Jacob from Virgin Green Fund; John Suh from GM Advanced Technology Silicon Valley; and Saul Zambrano from PG&E's Clean Air Transportation Program.

Plug In to GRID! LogoAll this plus drinks, hors d'oeuvres, and a silent auction under Google’s solar-powered carport at their campus in Mountain View. Tickets must be purchased in advance - space is limited and this event will sell out. For more information or to purchase tickets online, visit www.gridalternatives.org/plugin. All proceeds support GRID Alternatives' work bringing renewable energy to low-income communities throughout California.

The staff of GRID Alternatives San Diego invite you and your guests to our first annual "Friendraiser" to celebrate the successful launch of our work in San Diego, and thank everyone who has made it possible. Join us for food, drink, and socializing at the beautiful, LEED certified Sun Harbor Marina as we thank all the volunteers and supporters who have helped the San Diego office get off to such a great start in our first six months. This is a great opportunity to meet and mingle with other volunteers and supporters, and to bring folks who may be interested in learning more about GRID Alternatives and want to get involved. There will be a raffle, snacks, wine, and beer from the solar-powered Stone Brewery. We look forward to seeing you there!
