The cost of using many of our current energy sources is high — both in dollars and in environmental impact. This free, fun community festival will showcase energy-smart businesses and organizations that provide information about energy conservation, renewable energy and energy efficient technologies that can help all of us save money and become more energy-independent.

The festival is free; just bring energy, enthusiasm and the entire family for fun activities, food, educational workshops, and music by local bands Stuck in Sherman, Rum Runners, and StitchCraft. Visit energy-smart businesses that offer products and services to help consumers save money, save energy, and save the environment. Learn about choices for a sustainable, affordable energy future.
