Newark Librarian Barbara Telford-Ishida has scheduled Fixit Clinics for (September,) October and November (see flyer attached below.)

And the Fixit Clinic event listing for the Oct 8 Fixit Clinic on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/events/1759974100956771/

I recognize that Newark’s somewhat distant so we'll try to organize carpools; I'll reimburse for gas (and tolls) if that's a consideration.

So far the coaches signed up are:

Cecelia “CC” Clark (carpooling from Oakland with Peter)

Sandra (Gothmom) Stewart (new: Welcome!)

Joe Margevicius

Lovejit Kharod
Mike Barbaro - can drive carpool from Castro Valley

Peter Mui (picking up CC in Oakland)

Sarah Foster-Peck - looking for carpool from Castro Valley (hey, a match!)

Plus Barbara’s complement of coaches: Craig, (Lovejit), Todd

(Sewing coaches: the Newark library has lots of sewing machines so there’s no need to bring yours.)

Please check in on the coach's sign in form, indicate whether you can offer carpooling or need a carpool: http://goo.gl/xS1MRK

Hope you can make it, -Peter
