[Newleaf] Fwd: SJSF - Upcoming Event: Tufts Energy Conference (Registration Now Open!)

[Leah Grossman]

Hey all!
I was wondering if anyone is planning on going to this conference?
I am planning on going and wondering if anyone wants to carpool? ALSO,
can we get hampshire funds to pay for the conference cost (or even
request a van)?
Let me know!
