SUMMARY:Tree-preciation Walk
DESCRIPTION:A walk to observe some of Natick’s spactacular and unsung trees – with discussion and general appreciation for often unnoticed beauty in our midst.   \nWe will be crossing roads and may need to walk in the road where there may not be a sidewalk – but mostly on quiet side streets. We will be looking at trees that are on private property but we will not be going onto any private property. The walk is slow\, with frequent stops and should take about an hour – give or take 15 minutes. \nWEATHER: This event will happen “rain or shine.”  Dress appropriately for the weather and for walking at a slow pace.  \nACCESSIBILITY: There may be uneven ground or steep slope.  This will be a walk along sidewalks and some smaller streets\, accessibility may vary.

This overview is a great first step on your journey. Presenter’s cars will also be in the church parking lot to view.  \nYour next car should be electric. It’s more practical than you think to switch away from gas. The more you know\, the more you’ll want one! \nFUN FACT: It is cheaper to drive a mile on electricity than it is to drive a mile on gasoline and electricity prices are much less volatile than gas prices. Though your electricity costs will go up if you’re charging your EV at home\, your gas costs will go down by more. \n Come “pet” some of the latest Electric Vehicle models with experts on hand to answer your questions about models\, charging\, range\, maintenance\, and incentives!  Chat with owners about their EV experience!
