The Electric Vehicle Association of San Diego is an affiliate of the Electric Auto Association (EAA), and is a organization of electric car owners, electric car enthusiasts, and ordinary people who would just like to learn a little more about electric cars. We meet at the RTC [Reginal Transportation Center @ El Cajon & I-15] on the 4th Tuesday of every month except December. We have a local newsletter and EAA has "Current EVents".
Because of tighter government control of non-profit orgainizations, EVAoSD voted to accept EAA's offer to handle our funds for us. For that reason, EVAoSD has closed its bank account and turned our funds over to EAA. Donations to EVAoSD are made by sending them to EAA either by e-mail [Credit Card or PayPal from the EAA web page with "EVAoSD" in comments] or regular mail [check made out to EAA with "EVAoSD" on the comment line]. EVAoSD asks for a $12.50 donation per year to receive our printed newsletter and the cost its printing and mailing cost. To become a member of EAA and receive the Worldwide "Current EVents" in addition to the EVAoSD Newsletter is $39.00 per year in the United States by Credit Card, PayPal or check. Remember to put "EVAoSD in the comments field.
We meet every fourth Tuesday (except December) at 7:00 p.m. at the Reginal Transportation Center [El Cajon & I-15] next to Pearson Fuels. Go to the conference room.
