BURLINGTON, ON
Those guys over at Burlington Hydro know how to make the system work for them.
Last Saturday the city held an Open Doors event. Dozens of places around the city opened their doors – the Fire Station, Freeman Station, and the Union Burial Grounds to name a few. Hundreds of people poured in.
How do you compete against attractions like that?
Don’t compete – put you tent up on another day.
Thinking like that explains why we pay the hydro people the big bucks.
Burlington Hydro is holding their Open House this Friday at the Hydro office on Brant Street from 10 am to 2 pm.
Activities are taking place in different locales on the property: EVs along the front – displays and exhibits in the back garage – charity BBQ, bucket rides, and equipment on the back lot. North parking lot will be used for visitor parking.
One of the several EV’s that were available for a test drive at a recent historical auto show. Four or five EV will be available for test drives at the Burlington Hydro Open House.
The EV cars will be lined up at the front of the building.
Plug n’Drive brings 4 or 5 EVs that people will be able to test drive through the neighbourhood.
