Why are we doing this run?
On November 8, 2016, Amendment 1 was put on the ballot to deceive voters in Florida. This Amendment was funded primarily by monopoly utility companies. Through a grassroots and social media campaign, we were able to expose the truth and defeat Amendment 1! FlaSEIA truly appreciates the support of all who helped to get the word out and shoot down this amendment which would have been detrimental to the solar industry in Florida. We won, now LET’S RUN! Our mission is to continue to educate the general public of the importance of going solar and to raise funds to continue moving the needle for solar in the state during legislative session this year!
Both the 5k and 1 mile courses will be a down and back around the lake.
