Over 20,000 people from all over the country travel to the Town of Stockton to attend this event each year. The Energy Fair attracts over 200 exhibitors and offers more than 200 workshops on topics ranging from living sustainably to financing/economics to alternative energy systems and includes specific programs for young adults, children, professionals, and educators. The Midwest Renewable Energy and Sustainable Living Fair not only stimulates the local economy but gives those of us in the community a chance to experience first-hand the nation’s premier energy education event. MREA depends heavily on its volunteers to keep this event successful. Please consider volunteering at the Energy Fair. If you volunteer for two hours, you can get into the Fair free for the day. You can download a volunteer form or fill one out on-line at http://www.the-mrea.org/fair_volunteer.php. MREA needs the most help in working the gate (Sales), helping out at the MREA Café (Food Service), and in picking up the grounds (Grounds Crew). Teens are welcome to volunteer as well. Come and check out what’s happening in our own backyard!
