DON'T FORGET TO CARPOOL TO SOLARTHON 2012!
In an effort to make Solarthon 2012 a sustainable community event, GRID Alternatives would like to remind you to try to carpool to the big day!
Why Carpool?
     • Fight climate change!
        Carpooling cuts down on harmful greenhouse gas emissions, reducing your own carbon footprint, while
        helping GRID Alternatives make Solarthon 2012 a sustainable event.
     • Network!
        Carpooling is a great way to meet other Solar Champions and kick-off your day of networking!
     • Good for your pocketbook!
        With gas prices high, everyone can chip-in and share the expense! 
     • Win a Great Prize!
        Everyone who carpools to the event (driver and passenger) will be entered into a raffle to receive a special
        carpooling prize!
How to Carpool to Solarthon 2012!
If you are an individual sponsor please let us know by emailing solarthonie@gridatlernatives.org if you are interested in carpooling, and we will connect you with other Solar Champions near you!
If you are coming as part of a team, encourage your team members to hitch ride together or let us know by emailing solarthonie@gridalternatives.org, and we will connect you with other Solar Champions near you!
