Electric Choice Campaign Visits The Oakdale Theater

June 22, 2005

New Britain, CT (June 2005) - The Department of Public Utility Control (DPUC) brought its Electric Choice campaign to concert goers at the June 21st Strange Days Festival at the Oakdale Theater in Wallingford. Thousands of people visited the WattsNewCT booth to learn about the changes taking place in the electric industry.

The WattsNewCT team brought along an air conditioner, donated by Bernies, to give away to a lucky concert goer. The prize was awarded to Howard J. Perkins of Oxford. Attendees were also offered several free items that displayed the WattsNewCT logo, toll-free number and web site address.

DPUC's participation in the event was in addition to the hundreds of events that take place across the state where the outreach team presents information regarding electric choice.

"We're hitting the streets in unique ways this summer to educate people about their choices," said Outreach Manager Donna Devino. "We want to ensure that electric consumers have the knowledge they need to make informed decisions regarding their electric service."
