Hello Fair friends,
As the shortest, and snowiest, month comes to a close, the MREA Events Team is keeping our focus forward. Forward to sunnier days and action towards clean energy and sustainable living for all. We are continuing to build an Energy Fair that does more than bring people together. Our team is working to create real opportunities and access to resources and education, all within an event that inspires action.
You'll be hearing more from us in the coming weeks and months regarding what you can expect at the Fair and how you can take advantage of this incredibly special event.
It is never too late to get involved! We hope you will consider sharing the Fair with your family and friends as we gear up for an incredible year and an incredible event.
Shine on!
