Renewable Energy Learning Event A Success
Clean energy was the theme of yesterday's Earth Day Celebration at Dry Creek.

Earth Day Celebtration 2010It was an incredibly beautiful day yesterday in Washoe Valley, a perfect, sun and fun filled Spring day at our Washoe City nursery location. We celebrated Earth Day, the wind and Dry Creek's new wind turbine with a a pro-environment information fair. Lots of students and gardeners stopped by with questions and to hear the amazing music by Tim Snider.

There was one thing unusual, though, about yesterday's wind energy and wind turbine celebration: there was not a hint of wind! Usually residents of Washoe City would count a windless day a blessing, but everyone wanted to see the new turbine turning.

A good time was had by all.
