Garfield County Fair

There were about 20 vendors setting up for the annual county fair in Garfield County, CO. Horses in the ring and sun shining brightly, Frank Smith from Western Colorado Congress (WCC) set up his table on the impacts of Oil Shale development on the west slope. A few people stopped by to see what was going on at the bus, including three very interested kids who learned what renewable energies are, fabricated great wind turbine blades, and put together a hydrogen powered car compliments of Kid Wind. The car didn’t quite finish the electrolysis process, but luckily the kids came to join us once again at the Sweet Corn Festival to get it working. It was great to see the power of the wind, water, and the children that will continue to live in this world.
