Lend a Hand at the FMCBW
The Fargo Moorhead Community Bicycle Workshop is looking for a new crop of multi-talented folks to pitch in at the shop. We're an all volunteer operation, turning rescued bikes into stylish, ride-able, green machines for folks to get from points A to points B reliably and safely - without a drop of fossil fuel (even the grease we use is Soy-based!). With Spring coming on and the demand for bikes going up, we need your help!
Are you ready to make a real difference in you community? Become a Dedicated Volunteer:
-Learn new skills and meet great people in a super friendly environment, empower people and share your own skills and knowledge, get greasy in the most hands-on and beautiful way, and have tons of fun doing it.
-No experience necessary - we'll get you trained in and oriented, and you'll always be working with a Collective Member by your side.
-dedicate yourself to serving with us for 2 (or more!) shifts a month, a 6-hour commitment to positive change!
What else is in it for you?
-access to the shop, it's tools, and expert advice for keeping your bike in good shape.
-access to cheap and free parts from the shop (neat stuff comes and goes fast - gearhounds, rejoice).
-camaraderie with a forward-thinking, democratic and volunteer-run community group of mechanics, artists, students, teachers, bicyclists and other wonderful human beings who respect your opinion and value your contribution and all the skills you bring.
Come check us out or give us a call during our open hours, we'd be happy to show you around:
1418 1st Avenue North in Fargo

Friday, 31 October 2008 |
Friends, Volunteers and longtime supporters:
We've outgrown our current space,and are moving from our wonderful old
location next to Adrian's Auto Care (1303 1st Ave N Fargo) to a nice spot
down the street a few blocks (1418 1st Ave N Fargo). No time like the slow
season to re-establish our shop.
Join us as we settle in! There is plenty to do.
Tasks for all ages and abilities, but we'd especially love folks who:
Like to Paint
Like to build stuff (like cabinets and workbenches)
Love to organize or have a good sense of workplace flow or are industrial
process engineers (or play process engineers on TV)
Own a Truck, a Trailer, or a 2-wheeled hand cart
Have carpentry, electrical or plumbing experience
Would love to hang out and help out the coolest little bike shop around put
bikes in the hands of those who need it most!
All you need to do is come on over during regular volunteer hours. We'll put
you to work on a task of your choosing, keep you busy, happy, and
entertained.
Stop by: Tuesdays and Thursdays 5-9pm or Sundays from 11 am-5pm.
Can't get enough? I'm sure we could use you other days. Call Pete:
701.866.0962 and we'll be sure to plug you in. |
