The Eco Centre’s first workshop took place on August 26, and sold
out quickly. The participants got a hands-on course on installing and hooking
up the Centre’s battery bank, power board and solar panels. At the
end of the day the main switch was thrown, and we all witnessed the Centre
receiving its very first solar power!
Workshops Summer and Fall, 2007
Workshop fees include taxes as well as all required materials
and tools; some workshops call for you to bring specific items which are
indicated in the workshop description.
Please note: some workshops have the “Audit option” indicated:
you can sit in and listen without participating in the hands-on elements
or direct contact with the workshop co-ordinator. Think of it as a “fly
on the wall” approach. All refreshments and meals are still included.
Those who wish to sing up for more than 1 workshop can arrange a special
discount. Please contact us for more information.
All workshops include coffee, tea, juice, snacks and a lunch. Dinners
are included where applicable.
