Take Charge Workshop Series Wraps Up - October 27, 2008
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass - Take Charge: The North Adams Campaign to Save Energy, a partner with Northern Berkshire Community Coalition, will host the last of four workshops at Williamstown Public Library Wednesday October 29th at 6:30. Nancy Nylen will present "Lowering Your Electric Bill."
Nylen, from CET, will introduce ways residents can cut costs on their electric bills this winter and into the future. Participants are encouraged to bring questions about their own homes. Nylen will dissect a typical energy bill to find areas where savings are possible.

Everyone is welcome to attend the workshops and light refreshments will be provided. Check out the website (takechargenorthadams.org) for more information. |
