Kensington Memorial Day Parade
2019-05-27 09:00 - 23:30 UTC | Kensington Parade, Ridgeway and Marlborough, Kensington, CA, 92116, United States
The Electric Vehicle Association of San Diego will participate in the Kensington Memorial Day Parade as we have the last two years. It is always a fun time.
We will line up an hour before the parade, socialize and talk to people about EVs, drive the short parade route and drive home with a smile! It’s a lot of fun seeing people react to our EVs – and we love to remind them as we’re cruising through: no fumes and no noise!
If you would like to participate with your EV, email Elaine Borseth: Elaine@SanDiegoEV.org
