Florida Tesla Enthusiast Club Members,

You’re invited to the Epicurean Hotel to Refresh and Recharge! The Epicurean has installed 2 Tesla High Power Wall Connectors!


Meet Up in Bern’s Fine Wines & Spirits located in the Epicurean Hotel for an early evening of fabulous wines & hors d'oeuvres.


Enjoy complimentary valet parking at the Epicurean Hotel. This location is already programmed on your NAV system on the "Destination Chargers" tab under "Places".


Graciously hosted by the Epicurean and Bern’s Fine Wines & Spirits


Thursday, May 28th
5:00pm – 7:00pm

If you purchase a bottle of wine, you can enjoy it over dinner that night in Élevage at the Epicurean, and they’ll waive the corkage fee!


And for those of us who would rather take the elevator home, the Epicurean has established a special rate for our group - $149. That represents nearly a $100 discount.

Invitations for this event have been sent to the Southwest Region. If interested, please RSVP to that invitation and follow the instructions to obtain this room discount. If you are a club member in another region and are interested in attending this event, please email me at [email protected] and I will send you an invitation.


Please RSVP and register as soon as possible but no later than May 27th at 5:00 pm.

Registration is limited to the first 40 people who RSVP and register! Please click on the "View Invitation" link on the email invitation to view the details on how to register.

The Epicurean has two High Power Wall Connectors. They are managed by the 24/7 hour valet operations so Models Ss are swapped in and out of the chargers all day and night.
So no, you don't have to tippy-toe down to the parking garage in your Epicurean bathrobe at 3 in the morning to move your car to let someone else charge. :wink:

This was the first event we could attend and we had a great time. Really enjoyed meeting other enthusiasts. Also, our stay at the hotel was fabulous! **Highly recommended as a great weekend getaway.

Eric & Jennifer,

I'm glad that you could make this event.

I'll be getting my head together with the Epicurean management to see if we can organize a weekend getaway club event. Stay tuned.
