			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Here&#8217;s your opportunity to find out how and help develop a plan to achieve just that! <strong>On 13th November there will be two big events </strong>- come to one or come to both!</p>
<p>In the morning there’s the rare opportunity to take a <strong>tour of the Hepburn Wind Farm</strong> – see how it works and how the Hepburn community got together to create a valuable, community owned local asset. This tour has been arranged by the Bendigo branch of Engineers Australia.</p>
<p>In the afternoon the Bendigo Sustainability Group, in conjunction with Strategem Financial Group, is hosting <strong>Strategem Repower Bendigo</strong>, a public forum to:</p>
<ul>
<li><strong>hear about what  technology for sustainable power is available right now</strong></li>
<li><strong>generate ideas on  how we can get Bendigo powered 100% by renewable resources</strong></li>
</ul>
<p><strong><em>This is your chance to be truly empowered within our local community and really make a difference. It CAN be done!</em></strong></p>
<p>For more information on the Hepburn Wind Farm tour, ticket prices and how to book <a title="Hepburn Wind Farm tour" href="http://www.goldfieldssolarhub.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Hepburn-Wind-Farm-tour_20111024.pdf" target="_blank">click here</a>.</p>
<p>For details on Repower Bendigo and how to RSVP <a title="Strategem Repower Bendigo flyer" href="http://www.goldfieldssolarhub.org.au/wp-content/uploads/2011/10/Strategem-Repower-Bendigo-Flyer_20111024.pdf" target="_blank">click here</a>. Repower Bendigo is a free event.</p>
<p><em>Please note these are separate events and your place in each needs to be booked separately. </em>That said, we hope to see you at both!</p>
