Electric Vehicle Poker Run
Electric vehicle drivers can celebrate Earth Day while taking a poker run inspired scenic cruise around Lake Tahoe on Saturday, April 21. TahoeAlternativeFuels.com is hosting the free activity from 11 a.m. – 5 p.m. as part of its ongoing efforts to raise awareness of the ease and accessibility of driving plug-in electric vehicles in the Tahoe-Truckee Region. Drivers of any electric vehicle are invited to participate in the poker run, enjoy food and drink specials, free charging, and compete for prizes in best hand, worst hand and best mileage/efficiency categories.
Registration and the first card of the poker run will take place at the Tahoe Truckee Earth Day Celebration at the Village at Squaw Valley, in the Tahoe Regional Planning Agency booth at 11 a.m. Then it’s off to downtown Truckee for the second stop in the poker run at the train depot’s charging lot. Hosted by the Town of Truckee and Tahoe Donner Public Utility District, this stop offers free charging, give-aways, and plenty of nearby points of interest to peruse.
