The Alternative Fuels - Environmental Club at the Career Center, is hosting an alternative fuels Go Green Go-Kart Competition on May 20, 2009 as part of the annual Carnival Day.

Karts will be powered by electricity, ethanol, biodiesel, or WVO (waste vegetable oil.) We would like to invite every high school in the WS/FC Schools system to field at least one team.

As an example, the kart on the bottom was designed at MIT. For more information, please click on one of the following links:
