ReVision Brings Solar Powered Lemonade to Portland Chamber Golf Tournament

Friday, August 6th, 2010

Last week several of ReVision’s participated in the Portland Regional Chamber of Commerce‘s annual gulf tournament, held at Val Halla Golf Course in Cumberland.

It was a beautiful day with ample sun – a perfect opportunity for us to make solar-powered lemonade thanks to a photovoltaic system we installed off the 13th fairway:

While we don’t want to go into the gory details of our golfing performance (suffice to say it was more fun than awe-inspiring) there were plenty of memorable moments including par-saving putts by Tim Jilek and this photogenic shot of John Capron with one of our solar systems in the background:
