On June 14, our team members and their families enjoyed a wonderful private tour at the Tomaquag Museum, led by education manager Chrystal Baker. Chrystal introduced us to the inspiring stories of marathon runner Ellison "Tarzan" Brown and Princess Red Wing, in addition to sharing her own family stories with our team. We were all captivated by the rich history and cultural heritage presented.

We are eagerly anticipating the upcoming new Tomaquag museum at the URI campus and are hopeful that we can contribute our commissioning expertise to this exciting project for the Rhode Island indigenous community.

Our team recently enjoyed an engaging and educational outing to the Fields Point Waste Water Treatment Facility in Providence. During the visit, attendees participated in a tour and presentation by Green Energy Consumers Alliance and Narragansett Bay Commission engineers.

The highlight of the event was the impressive wind turbine, which supplies power to Rhode Island's Community Choice Electricity program. This experience underscored our commitment to sustainable energy practices and the importance of innovative solutions in our community.
