As we were never able to go to the meetings up in Boca, we decided to open a FLEAA chapter in Miami!
The 1st Meeting of the FLEAA-Miami Chapter will be this Monday April 20th at 7:30 pm.   We are meeting at Casola Pizza 2437 SW 17th Ave, Miami, FL‎.   It is an ideal location, as it is close to downtown, Coconut Grove, Miami Beach, Little Havana Key Biscayne, and Coral Gables.  And almost everyone will be coming from a location that is against the afternoon traffic rush.  Plus, they have good pizza slices.
Agenda
1.  What is the Florida EAA?

On Saturday April 25, 2009, Miami’s Bayfront Park will serve as the perfect backdrop for Miami Goin’ Green – an exciting eco-friendly event that’s fun for the entire family! The Green Movement is long overdue in South Florida, but has started to make its mark with companies and individuals everywhere trying to lead a more sustainable lifestyle.
The event will operate on 100% alternative fuel with solar-power and bio-diesel generators. Recycling stations throughout the park will be manned by our “Green Team” to help educate visitors on how to properly recycle and dispose of their waste. In addition to traditional recycling, there will also be Tech-Recycling stations to collect unused tech items such as old batteries, cell phones, computers and monitors.
On Earth Day, April 22nd, the Wednesday before the big event, we are organizing a big 6 mile caravan of electric and alternative fuel vehicles to attempt to break the Guinness World Record for the largest all alternative fuel vehicle procession. If your vehicle is clean, then come on board! more info HERE
The route will start at Bayfront Park in downtown Miami, run down Biscayne Boulevard, then historic Brickell and Bayshore Drives, and end in Commodore Plaza in the heart of Coconut Grove.
Each participant in the event will receive a free t-shirt and Official Certificate showing their participation in the World Record.
Come and participate on the caravan and come over for the weekend to see the cars! Hope to see you there!
