The turbines swishing through the air generating electricity have such an awesome appearance that the Bluegrass Ridge Wind Farm has became a bit of a tourist attraction. Seeing the need to provide more information to visitors____and to further develop the community___The Tri-County Alternative Energy Education and Visitors Center was envisioned.
Now, the not-for-profit King City group supporting the venture is in the process of raising funds for a 4,800 square foot facility. It would house a visitors' center with hands-on activities for both children and adults explaining alternative energy and a viewing area of the Blue Ridge Wind Farm developed by Wind Capital Group.
The facility also would offer educational programs and serve as a community center.

Alternate energy is always a good thing especially when it helps the environment.
Hi Bill, Mo has several windfarms in the makings. Alternate energy is relatively new in this area so education is a very important factor for local residents, it is certainly creating lots of visitors to the area. Have a great weekend.
