They want to include circuit bending (and I bet we could come up with some other things), so they are looking for volunteers to come help. I'm going. If anyone else is interested, please drop me a note. It would be great to have a couple of us there. The event is on Friday, February 5th from 5:30 to 8:00pm. Thanks in advance, Jenett -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...

Please feel free to share any of these with the members of your organization. Lastly: we'd love to hear from you, to help answer any questions or address any concerns you might have. All suggestions are welcome, too! Thank you for your time and consideration; please do let us know if you're feeling interested :) Cordially, Glenn Carter Memorial Toolshare Trustees gcmttrustees at gmail.com Glenn Carter Memorial Toolshare -- a project of Center for Sustainable Living -- would like to invite you to participate in our MLK Day week-long event-series *Community Toolshare Tool Spiffing Days!* Volunteers will help to organize and clean a big collection of hand and power tools, getting them ready to be shared with the community in Bloomington's first general tool lending library! Auto repair, plumbing, wood and metal working...you name it, we have the tool for it! We will be wiping and scouring, soaking rusty tools (only dish liquid, vinegar, and baking soda will be used), and applying WD-40. Gloves, NIOSH-rated particle-filtration masks, and safety goggles will be provided, to help keep you breathing easy while helping us bust the rust. Let's create an awesome tool library for all, have fun together, and spiff up our own community-building tool-set! You can RSVP here: http://goo.gl/forms/3oTzTT0Sd7 Or just stop by at 245 W. Grimes Ln. (next to the B-line). The event's schedule is the following: Monday, Jan 18: 9 AM - 7 PM Tuesday, Jan 19: 5 PM - 9 PM Wednesday, Jan 20: 5 PM - 9 PM Thursday, Jan 21: 5 PM - 9 PM Friday, Jan 22: 5 PM - 9 PM Saturday, Jan 23: ? 12 PM - 8 PM Here's a link to the Facebook event: https://www.facebook.com/events/1496517620654401/ Come for the whole work session or just a little bit; every minute of help is a great contribution to the tool library and a gift for the community!
