Guest Post from Triangle Family Services

Melissa — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 18:29:41 +0000

A Romantic Evening in Support of Raleigh Families

Looking for the perfect Valentine’s Day gift for that special someone? Consider purchasing tickets to Moon Over Midtown, a night of magic and memories at the Renaissance Raleigh North Hills Hotel on Friday, Feb. 17. Hosted by the Wild, Wacky, Wonderful Women of the World (W5), proceeds from the event will support the work of Triangle Family Services, an agency that has been battling critical issues in the community for the most vulnerable families for more than 75 years.

A cause near and dear to the hearts of many, Triangle Family Services’ mission is to “build a stronger community by strengthening the family” by providing programs in three key areas — financial stability, family safety and mental health services. Last year alone, the organization served more than 7,000 Triangle area residents with 93 percent living below the poverty level.

Feeling inspired? Tickets can be purchased here. The night promises to be one to remember with tantalizing appetizers, live music from the North Tower Band, a cash bar of wine and beer, silent and live auctions, and the wonderful ambiance of a special night out.

Throughout the evening, the W5 and Triangle Family Services Young Professionals are excited to host singles and couples activities, including Darts and Hearts, A Rose for a Dance, fortune telling, caricatures and a photo booth. You also won’t want to miss your chance to bid on silent and live auction packages such as eight box seat tickets to a Carolina Mudcats game and an “Extreme Adventure Pack,” including one tandem hang-gliding lesson and one dune lesson, two zip-line tours and one week of horseback riding camp for children.

So, all of you Romeos and Juliets out there, will we plan to see you there?

Journey of the Electric Car

Jason — Fri, 27 Jan 2012 17:11:22 +0000

Join Advanced Energy and North Hills for this Kick-Off Celebration! Following the recent dedication of two public electric vehicle charging stations at North Hills, “Journey of the Electric Car” will mark the completed delivery of 40 Nissan LEAF Plug-in Electric Vehicles (PEVs) to individuals that have purchased these vehicles through financial incentives from the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act (ARRA) offered through the North Carolina State Energy Office funded program. This event also serves as the kick-off event for Advanced Energy’s two-year PEV Usage Study.

“Journey of the Electric Car” will run from 12-2pm, Saturday, January 28th, on The Commons at North Hills. Jeff Barghout, director of Electric Transportation at Advanced Energy, will present an overview of PEVs and what they mean to North Carolina at 12:30pm and Leith Nissan will conduct Ride and Drives throughout this event, allowing the public a chance to test drive the all-electric Nissan LEAF. In addition to a display of PEVs, Advanced Energy’s technical staff will also be available to answer questions about owning and operating PEVs.

Schneider Electric, a global specialist in energy management, who generously is providing its EVlink™ Outdoor Electric Vehicle (EV) charging stations during the event, will also be on hand to answer questions about charging stations.

Looking forward to seeing The Commons full of PEVs!
