Eastern Electric Vehicle Club

About the Club

The E.E.V.C. is a grass-roots network of people from all walks of life interested in the potential of alternative powered vehicles. As the need for alternative energy grows, the so does the importance of exploring alternative energy resources. Maybe you've heard all about "going green" and want to see what you can do. Maybe you own a Prius and want to share your experience. The E.E.V.C. is the perfect forum to learn and share as we move forward into an age where vehicles don't depend on gas.

Save June 7 and 8, 2008 to join the first annual 21st Century Automotive Challenge Competition and help demonstrate how we can enjoy better personal transportation with less petroleum consumption and less impact on the environment. The competition, which is being organized by the Eastern Electric Vehicle Club, a chapter of the U. S. Electric Auto Association, will feature a number of events highlighting different approaches to energy-saving automotive transportation including:

The Tour-to-the-Shore

A RALLY TO THE SCENIC JERSEY SHORE WITH POINTS FOR ACCURATE DRIVING AND GREATEST FUEL ECONOMY
In Three Divisions
1. Gasoline Cars, Trucks and SUVs.
