🎃 A Not- So Spooky Evening of Alternative Fuel Discussions 👻
​Kick off our brand-new Dine Arounds series with Fuels & Ghouls—a fun and casual event where we explore how the fuels that power our vehicles impact our air and our environment. Each month, we'll gather over food to talk about big ideas that connect transportation, technology, and clean air.
​

​This month, the Dine-Around will take place at Wichita Puff's in Gresham, Oregon.—and this event is all about alternative fuels that are better for the planet.
​
​Instead of gas and diesel, more and more vehicles are using cleaner options that are better for our air and our environment. At this event, you’ll learn about alternatives like:
​
​Propane Autogas – a clean fuel already used in school buses and trucks
​Renewable Diesel (R99) – made from natural oils and waste
​Renewable Natural Gas – captured from farms and landfills
​
​You’ll get to explore interactive tables, meet fuel and technology experts, ask questions, and enjoy good food.
​
​Costumes are welcome—but not required. Curiosity is the only thing you need to bring!
​
​Refreshments and appetizers will be provided.
​
​Current Table Leaders:
​R99 - Star Oilco, Mark Fitz
​Propane - Public Fleet Management Association, Dan Zenger
​Renewable Natural Gas - TBA
​To become a table sponsor at this event, which involves acting as a table leader, having your materials on the table, being listed as a sponsor, as well as a brief introduction/acknowledgement at the start of the event, please message us or email [email protected]

​Dine Arounds are casual, mini-conference-style gatherings where professionals, scholars, and community members come together over a drink, a bite, and great conversation. Each month, we’ll explore a different topic at the intersection of transportation, technology, and clean air—creating space to share ideas, learn something new, and make meaningful connections. Whether you're just curious or already working in the field, Dine Arounds are a relaxed, welcoming way to grow your network and be part of the clean transportation movement. Hosted by Columbia-Willamette Clean Cities.
