Hi Fixit Coaches:
We've got a Fixit Clinic scheduled for THIS SATURDAY April 1 (no fooling) at the Fremont Main Library from 1PM to 4PM. Can you coach that day? Please sign up at http://goo.gl/xS1MRK
This is our second Fixit Clinic at the Fremont Library: photos from our previous Fremont Fixit Clinic are here: https://goo.gl/photos/Sp7q1RZmKbWP2DXU6
Hosted by City of Fremont Environmental Specialist Lori Marra, It’s been heavily promoted and judging from the advance signups will be very busy: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1WO1idVUYij4S_-zdrJQbUe1hdL9Vza_VH8O52NU5mG4/edit?usp=sharing
We’ll also have these school groups participating:
1) FIERCE (Fremonters Enabling Real Change in the Environment): they participated last time
2) An AP Environmental Studies class at American High School that would like to fix flat bike tires while giving quick interviews to participants for their classroom action project.
3) The Makers Club at American High School along with some students from the Green Club at Thornton Junior High School want to make no-sew t-shirt tote bags.
So they’ll be a lot of first time Fixit Coaches at this event; having lots of veteran Fixit Coaches around would be most helpful.
Here's the Fixit Clinic listing on Google+: https://plus.google.com/events/c47ubjaeq6qut68edkub7fge1fg
