April Meeting Announcement

[Chriskid]

Utility Bills Got You Down?

This winter has been brutal. Heating and electric has hurt us all. At the April 27th meeting, we will examine ways to cut your energy bills. We will look at how you can change your electric supplier - the pro's and con's, tips you can use to save energy, the benefits of getting a Home Energy Audit. Then we will at our tanks. We have already looked at changing our lights to LED's, next we will look at our pumps. We will compare many internal and external pumps and just how much electricity we use.

To help one lucky member become more energy efficient, the Enfield Energy Alliance will be reimbursing one raffle winner the co-pay of a Home Energy Solution assessment from one of our partners. They will also donate a Kill-O-Watt meter to the raffle for someone to measure and calculate their energy usage!

We will also be raffling off a Marineland LED Lighting System and a Tunze Powerhead to some lucky winners as well! As always, there will be other prizes there too!

You must be a member in good standing to participate in the raffles for the Home Energy Solution, Kill-O-Watt Meter, LED and Powerhead and you must be present to win!

We look forward to seeing everyone at:
The Lutz Children's Museum
247 South Main Street
Manchester, CT 06040

Generally a report to sticky will do. If it doesn't get stickied in a couple days it probably got buried, just report again.

I love it when we have meetings at childrens museums it gives our daughter someplace to play without being a bother to everyone else

I was hoping this was to be my first club meeting in some time. Unfortunately have to travel Sunday to the UK(I guess that's really not unfortunate as I plan to get my fill of Guinness. ). Jeff's a great point of knowledge for all things energy related. Hope to meet up with you soon. Did have some questions regarding solar.

Have a great time!

Are there any good shops in the area near the meeting, that I could shop before the meeting?

Aquatic wildlife off exit 63 is pretty good.
