A GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY

Dear fellow resident of Clackamas County,
We are a team of homeowners from Clackamas County that has been working the past few months to develop a group purchase opportunity in solar energy. Not only for ourselves, but for any interested community members.

We have pre-selected two contractors who are offering great deals as well as lined up a number of different workshops for us to explore solar power together. If you are interested in learning more about how to generate your own electricity or hot water with solar power, join our citizen led initiative for solar. There is no better time for this golden opportunity than now.
