Zero Emission Inaugural Cruise - Clean Electric Cars for Obama

The Presidential Inauguration grows Near, and hope for a ‘greener’ more sustainable United States is High. One of our national Electric Car Organizations, ( Plug-In-America -http://www.pluginamerica.org/ went so far as to petition the inaugural parade committee to be in the Big Parade with 40 or 50 Electric Vehicles from the Washington DC area. Marching bands and other organizations unfortunately won out. However, not to be detoured, they have organized a huge EV Inaugural Parade in Santa Monica on Saturday, January 17th of their own.

Not to be outdone, the Seattle EV Association, is hard at work organizing a similar inaugural EV Parade for the Seattle Area. We will be driving thrugh Fremont, Pike Place Market, University District, and ending up for Show-N-Tell at the Church Parking Lot at 68th and Roosevelt Ave. at approximately 2 pm.

We wish to invite you all to be a part of this celebration, take some demonstration rides, and ask the owners, builders and drivers of Electric’s why the EV Buzz has taken over the Detroit International Auto Show this year. Talk with us of our hopes to bring Clean Sustainable Electric Transportation to the fore front.

For details on our rout, and various opportunities to meet with us along our rout, please see our web site and information at: (http://www.seattleeeva.org/wiki/Current_events) for Jan. 17th 09 Or call our President and Information officer, Steven Lough at 206 524 1351,
