A digest of upcoming volunteer opportunities and a slight mess of hyperlinks is below for your consideration -
I. WEEK OF 5/31: Public Hours / Open Shop
The workspace will be open on Sunday and next Tuesday evening as usual.
Also! We'll be joined by the folks from the city's Office of Sustainability & Innovation, who will be sharing info with visitors about this year's A2Zero Week.
A2Zero Week runs from Sunday, 5/31-Saturday, 6/6 and includes events such as (1) an all-electric home tour, (2) a walking tour of the Sustainable Energy Utility (SEU), (3) two options for a guided tour of Ann Arbor's bikeways, and many other events with opportunities to learn about local decarbonization efforts. Nearly all events are free (an RSVP is requested for a few); details here.
