Hi Fixit Coaches:

We've got an upcoming Fixit Clinic at the Albany Community Center on the evening of Tuesday, July 19 7:30-9:00 PM. Can you coach that evening? Please sign up here: http://goo.gl/xS1MRK
It’s a rare weekday evening event with a strong fabric and textile repair component, but we offer to repair other things there too.

Here's the Fixit Clinic event listing on Google+:https://plus.google.com/events/cblvtu280c1c3cq53r2f2kv41a0
And the Fixit Clinic event listing on Facebook :https://www.facebook.com/events/602369156590260/
And on the City of Albany’s calendar: http://www.albanyca.org/index.aspx?page=561&recordid=12418
See the text blurb below.

It’s a shorter, weekday evening, low key kind of Fixit Clinic, but it’s a nice chance to hang out with you fellow Fixit Coaches.

Hope to see you there! -Peter

A Combination Fixit Clinic and Swap n’ Sew

FIXIT CLINIC: All-ages do-it-together hands-on STEM-oriented fix-n-learn community-based discovery, disassembly, and repair: bring your broken, non-functioning things -- electronics, appliances, computers, toys, bicycles, (sewing machines and clothes - see below) etc.-- for assessment, disassembly, and possible repair. We'll provide workspace, specialty tools, and guidance to help you disassemble and troubleshoot your item. Whether we fix it or not, you'll learn more about how it was manufactured and how it worked. 

SWAP ‘N SEW: Bring your clean and washed, usable, but no longer wanted used clothes to swap for some "new to you" clothes. Bring fabric items you want to mend, your sewing machine (we will have one available if you don’t have one), and any sewing notions you need or want to donate (thread, buttons, patches, pins, etc.) We’ll help you repair your favorite fabric items, help reacquaint you with your sewing machine, and help you repair your non-working sewing machine.

Unfortunately I'm unable to coach during the week. I work in San Jose and commute back home to San Bruno. 

So if you have fix it clinics nearby me during the week, let me know.

I'm on vacation out of state that whole week.

Hey everyone,
I won't be able to make it next Tuesday but wanted to share the good press we got in the Castro Valley Forum for last month's clinic. There is another one coming up on August 6 and I hope to see you there. It is in a great facility, sponsored by great people.
Regards,
Sarah
