This is for cars only, I take it? I may attend with my Leaf, but I'd rather attend my local event (Latham NY) on my electric maxiscooter.

National Plug In Day is a nationwide celebration to heighten awareness of today's widespread availability of plug-in vehicles and highlight the benefits of all-electric and plug-in hybrid-electric cars, trucks, motorcycles, and more.

Scoot on down.

There are currently 60 Plug In Day events planned across the nation. If there's an event near you, please sign up to attend and also consider offering to help as a volunteer.

If there's not an event near you, and you'd like to organize an event for local EV owners to join in the celebration, there's still time to volunteer to organize an event.

Maybe I'll draft a friend to drive the Leaf over as well, and take the ZEV scooter/motorcycle myself. Especially if they have some 120 volt outlets available.

O.K. I've signed up for the event in Herndon, VA on Saturday, September 28.

But I will say that I ran into the same issue that I had last year with this event. We live just a bit beyond the round-trip distance for our LEAF, so we need to charge somewhere. Unfortunately, the event websites around here do not seem to make any mention of the availability of EVSEs and/or chargers at the event. To me, it seems like a glaring oversight for an event for electric vehicles and it was the main reason I did not attend last year. If you want to encourage more participation, please let us know what charging infrastructure is available at each event. TIA!

BTW, I have found out from other websites that there are two L1/L2 Chargepoint stations at this location. Does anyone know if these are located in the parking lot where the EVs will be located for the event?
