We will be taking Radiance all the way to Vancouver in an attempt to set a new world record for distance in a solar vehicle while raising awareness of climate change and educating the public about solar energy. Our race route will take us to 2 communities a day for both a midday and evening stop day throughout July. We hope to meet mostly with local students and teachers over lunchtime and use the evening stops to give a wider audience a chance to learn about solar and other renewable energies, not to mention get an up close look at our solar car. A main goal of ours for this tour is not only to inform but to motivate Canadians to take action locally against inefficient uses of energy. At lunch we will be promoting several school-based activities like a build-your-own mini solar car project weve been doing in Kingston for years. At our longer stops we'd like to help host energy expo type events. These community based events will attract both public and media attention as Radiance passes through your area and should help to promote your local efforts. If you are interested in discussing this possibility for your group, please get back to me via email or by phone at 613-533-6682. With your help I believe we can make our trip a truly huge Canadian environmental and educational event and have fun in the process. Thanks for your time.
