Take Charge "Winter Blitz" will weatherize local homes08:42AM / Tuesday, November 11, 2008
Williamstown, Mass - Students and community members will come together this Saturday to weatherize area residents' homes. A group of over 90 volunteers consisting of Williams College's Thursday Night Group as well as other Williams College students, MCLA students, Take Charge (a partner with nbCC), CET and countless others will team up to achieve energy efficiency in local homes.
Each group of 4 to 6 volunteers will be led by a team leader who will be trained Saturday morning. Each group will weatherize 3 homes helping to stop the drafts by putting interior storm windows and caulking around doors and windows as well as provide residents with compact fluorescent light bulbs to reduce their energy usage and costs. All together Winter Blitz will weatherize 49 homes in North Adams, Williamstown and Adams.
Madeline King, a Williams College Sophomore, Thursday Night Group member and CCE/Take Charge intern, is one of the key organizers of the event. She says, "Winter Blitz is an energy-saving initiative that truly involves and affects the greater community. It also gives students the chance to get to know their community better and lend a helping hand. We are so excited to be able to reach so many residents and have so many community members involved. Although it is going to be a lot of hard work, I think we will all have a great time doing it knowing the impact we are making on both the residents' energy bills as well as our environment."
Whether considering energy bills or stopping global warming, when it comes down to it, the key is energy conservation. Winter Blitz will help area residents make a dent in our energy crisis and hopes to inspire others to take the same steps.
