Earth Day/Solar Open House
      
        With Earth Day coming up on Monday April 22, learn how solar power can help protect our planet. A Solar Open House is planned for Saturday April 20 from 11am until 2pm at 210 E 6^th St in Tipton. See an operating solar installation and find out what you need to consider before planning an installation. You will be able to check out the solar panel attachments, the electrical connection and metering and how you can monitor the output of the solar array. There will be solar technicians on hand to answer your questions. James Dierckxe of Lowden will have a couple of solar/electric vehicles there including a solar ATV/hunting unit.
