Next Meeting

7pm Wednesday 17th May

The Glen

235 Springvale Rd.

Glen Waverley Vic 3150

Unfortunately, the event planned for our members meeting on the 10th May has had to be postponed. The presentation of the Toyota Land Cruiser conversion is now planned for 14th June.

Instead, we are holding a short gathering at the Glen Shopping centre new fast charger on the 17th May at 7pm.

The charger is in the B1 car park (yellow colour).

Enter off Snedden Dr at the Target/Woolworths/ALDI entrance, the charging unit is at the first left turn, opposite the travelator lobby.

Riz Akhtar will briefly speak about the new Kempower technology involved and the significance of Vicinity Shopping centres planning to install up to 30 similar chargers.

There will also be an opportunity for a "Show and Shine".

At a members event this includes bragging rights.

Seriously, it will be good to informally catch up with everyone and talk about our EV experiences.
