Every home is different, and everyone has something different they want for their home.  This workshop will demonstrate the best ways to save money, regardless of the type of residence.  Zoe Bottger, a representative from the North Shore Gas Natural Gas Savings Program, will share information about services and offerings available to homeowners, including …
