2011 LEAP Energy Fair Recap
On Saturday, April 9 from 9 AM to 1 PM the 5th LEAP Energy Fair took place at the Crossett Brook Middle School gym in Duxbury, VT. This year’s event was by far the largest and most successful ever with 65 exhibitors and more than 500 attendees, both representing a 50% increase over 2010! The fair was free and offered attendees the opportunity to tour displays and talk with dozens of experts about solar power, wind power, pellet stoves, geothermal, biomass, green building, carpooling, home energy audits, and many other topics. LEAP was delighted to have the Waterbury Farmer’s Market join the event for the first time. Many people enjoyed informative breakout sessions, and the LEAP Energy Fair was attended by many Vermont politicians including Governor Peter Shumlin and Senator Bernie Sanders. Senator Sanders was very pleased to give the LEAP Green Community Award to the Prodigy Red Team from Crossett Brook Middle School for their school lighting retrofit project
