Good afternoon! The following is a list of Energy & Environmental programs we will offer
this fall. I have also attached a PDF of all of our events. We hope you can join us! Also,
a couple of announcements --
The Toyota will serve as an early voting site for any
registered Knox County voter, Oct. 31- Nov. 3. For those in Precincts 10S & 10W, we are
your voting site also on Nov. 8, Election Day. We have also launched a friendly
competition with the Bob Graham Center at the University of Florida to register the most
students to vote. So, if you know of any students not registered, a form and box are
located in our building and we will host several voter registration drives, plus an online
option Turbovote. We will mail them in for you UNTIL Oct. 4, our deadline to make sure
they reach the appropriate office before the Oct. 11 Deadline.
Join us next week for a Baker Cafe on influence and power in politics - Aug. 29, 12:15-
