The Snohomish PUD is inviting the entire community to its 2025 Energy Block Party from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., April 26, at the PUD Electric Building Headquarters located at 2320 California Street in Everett. Some of the area’s yummiest food trucks will be available to keep you fueled up!
Truckstravaganza! (AKA Touch a Truck)
Fun for the young or just the young at heart! Get up close to PUD rigs and first-responder vehicles.
EV car show
Check out electric vehicles without the pressure of a salesperson. Get the dish on EVs from neighbors who own them. Want to show off your EV? Click here to volunteer!
Activities? Yes, naturally!
Fun is hands-on with our PUD education and Natural Resources staff. While supplies last, get your hands dirty creating native plant seed balls. You’ll learn about native plants and how they benefit our precious environment.
Also, visit our Vegetation Management team to see if you can win a tree (drawings are at 10:45 am, 11:45 am, 12:45 pm and 1:15 pm), play the Salmon game inside the building, and make salt dough ornaments with our environmental team in the parking lot. There are wheels to spin to win prizes and games to play around every corner!
