Great Coverage on Solar Grand Prix

The 1st Annual Solar Grand Prix held last Saturday, April 10 was a winner and is receiving some very positive press locally and in the "trade" publications.

Not only did it make front page, above the fold as they say in the news, on the Sunday Press Telegram, but check out the following links:

Thanks to all the corporate sponsors, the volunteers, the staff, the teachers, the parents and most of all the students who used their creativity to design very clever and in many cases, very fast, solar cars.

Also, thank you to Mayor Bob Foster who helped kick off the event with remarks and a visit in his electric car.

Great day!
