for caroline residents
Do you live in the Town of Caroline? Your household is eligible to receive one bag of free bulbs, plus other useful energy-saving information!
What is involved? We just have to get the bag to you, and collect your signature on a resident agreement form. Your agreement allows us to tally up how many bulbs are being replaced across the community, so that we can forward that information to our sponsors. It sounds simple, but in real life, people are busy, and it may not be easy to come in contact with every Caroline resident!
Our campaign will address this challenge by reaching out to people in their homes *and* inviting them to find us at certain busy or central locations.
Brighten Up Caroline volunteers will be going door-to-door in Caroline on two weekends in the fall and the spring. The specific dates in the fall were October 26 & 27 and November 2 & 3. The dates for the spring canvass have not yet been determined.
Originally, we planned to launch our distribution on October 4th, but we had trouble finding 10,000 suitable light bulbs to order. Our actual launch date was October 19th, at the Brooktondale Apple Festival, where we successfully distributed LED bags to over 50 households.
More locations for picking up your bag of bulbs are being confirmed, and will include:
Pancake Breakfast, Brooktondale Fire Hall, on Sunday January 5th, from 8 a.m. (The coordinator was hindered by bad weather for December's pancake breakfast)
Caroline Food Pantry, Old Fire Hall, Brooktondale, 5 to 7 p.m. on Dec. 2nd, weather permitting
Caroline Fish Fry, Caroline Center Church, Friday Dec 6th, from 4 p.m., weather permitting
Also, if you see a Prius with a Bernie bumper sticker in front of the house at 488 Valley Rd, then the Brighten Up Caroline coordinator is at home, and you can knock at the front door!
