WholeSolar to Exhibit at Earth Fair at Balboa Park on April 17
Coronado, California, April 6, 2011 – WholeSolar LLC will be a proud participant of the 22nd Annual EarthFair to be held at Balboa Park on Sunday April 17, 2011 (from 10 AM to 5 PM). The annual EarthFair is the largest free annual environmental fair in the world. Each year, the EarthFair draws around 60,000 visitors. Produced by 400 volunteers, EarthFair features more than 350 exhibitors, special theme areas, a Food Pavilion, a special Kids’ Activity Area, three entertainment venues, the Children’s Earth Parade, the eARTh Gallery art show, and the Cleaner Car Concourse.
“Our primary focus at the EarthFair will be to educate,” stated Linda Gayhart, Co-Founder and CEO of WholeSolar. “There is so much misinformation out there about solar. Solar power is more affordable that ever and once you have the right equipment, solar energy is free and there’s no shortage of sunshine.”
WholeSolar will be a part of the eHome exhibit area, which will showcase products and technologies that can make your home more environmentally sustainable. If you’re building a new structure, or adding to an existing home, you will discover alternative home-building technologies that will be of interest. In the eHome exhibit area, EarthFair attendees will be able to find out about energy- and resource-saving products and materials, like energy-efficient appliances and low-E windows. A wide variety of solar electric systems – available now – will be shown.
“We are fortunate to be located next to San Diego Gas & Electric’s exhibit booth in the big parking lot near the Hall of Champions,” said Roy Gayhart, Co-Founder and COO. “April is National Solar Quote Month. As an industry, we believe that it’s important that homeowners ask questions at least once a year to determine that solar may very well be the best investment available in today’s economic environment. Along with WholeSolar, there will be several solar companies, as well as SDG&E, on hand all day to give straight answers to your solar questions.”
Established in 2009, WholeSolar LLC (previously operated as Gayhart Associates LLC) has evolved from a home-based advocate of solar and distributed energy into a nationally-recognized government contractor and aggregator of solar products for small, independent solar installers and experienced do-it-yourself consumers. WholeSolar is a member of the Better Business Bureau, the Solar Energy Industries Association, the American Solar Energy Society, San Diego Renewable Energy Society and the Coronado Chamber of Commerce. Complete company and product information can be found at the Company’s web site, located at www.wholesolar.com.
EarthFair has been held every year since 1990. More than a fad, EarthFair seemed to have instantaneously become an institution. In two separate years since then, estimates have placed the number of visitors at more than 70,000.

This year’s sponsors include City of San Diego Committee for Arts and Culture, Solar Turbines, Walmart, Kyocera Solar, Toyoto, SDG&E, University of San Diego, San Diego Urban Corp, EDCO, Zero Waste, ABC 10 News, Cox Communications, San Diego Channel 6, 96.6 KYXY, FM 91.7, La Major FM 99.3, Sophie@103.7 and Edible San Diego.
