Like to slow down at least
one aspect of that roller-
coasting household budget?

If that’s the case, head for
the Energy Fair, March 9 -
13, at the Robson Square
Media Center in Vancouver.

The Fair, sponsored by
the Conservation and
Renewable Energy Branch
of the Ministry of Energy,
Mines, and Petroleum
Resources will offer a range
of practical conservation
measures aimed at helping
cut energy consumption -
and more importantly help
you save dollars.

Official opening of the five
day event takes place at 8:30
a.m. March 9th, when
Energy Minister Bob Mc-
Clelland and Vancouver
Mayor Mike Harcourt share
the ribbon snipping
ceremony.

The visitors to the Fair
will be able to take in the
latest developments in
Energy Research from both
Government and the Private
sectors. The Fair displays,
workshops and seminars will
show a whole host of ways in
which everyone from home-
owners to small business
operators can cut their
energy costs. In fact a whole
day will be devoted to Do It-
Yourselfers with demon-
strations and displays aimed
at aiding handymen to get
maximum value from their
cnergy expenditures.
