Hey everyone!
We are now on the home stretch in preparations for the opening of a Tool Lending Library to serve the NRV. This is a partnership with the Habitat ReStore in Christiansburg, who are providing us a great space in a warehouse behind the store at VERY low rent.
We hope to open our doors on Oct 26 (the date of the next Repair Cafe), and there is much to be done, including:
- setting up shelving, pegboards,etc.
- assessing condition of tools
- sorting and shelving tools
- cataloging and labeling tools
- etc, etc!
We will be hosting work days twice a week for the next several weeks, and would like to invite you to join us! This is a great way to earn Time Credits and find out more about this exciting project. Here are the days that work sessions are planned. Please let us know by return email if you can join us for any of them:
every Friday from Sept 20 - Oct 18 from 12:30 - 3
every Saturday from Sept 21 - Oct 19 from 10 am - noon
thanks!
Ellen and Avery
