Volunteer Orientation #2

Posted: January 28th, 2012 | Author: | Filed under: Events | Tags: , , | No Comments »

Our second volunteer orientation is this Sunday, 1/29 from 6-7 PM.

Similar to last time, we’ll be going over safe space guidelines and rules and showing folks around the shop.  We’ll also be running a quick “bike check-up” workshop.  This is great information for when you’re volunteering at the shop, maintaining your own bike, or considering buying a bike from Craigslist.

We’ll be running volunteer orientation every other week from now on, so check the calendar for details!
