Volunteer Training Class Spring 2012

Written by Darin Wick Monday, 07 May 2012 15:13

The Bike Collective needs your help! The Bike Collective is dedicated to serving bicyclists in Davis, and runs on donations of both time and money.

To become a trusted volunteer the Davis Bike Collective is offering a 5-week training class this Spring Quarter, 2012. We are looking for volunteers to show up for a regular shift, and maybe that means you! After 5 more weeks of helping to run a shift, you will be on the list for consideration to get a key and run a shift on your own.

This training class is for people who will be spending the summer in Davis. Class size is limited. After graduation, a trip or special event will be held for participants.

Where: Bike Forth shop at 1221 ½ 4th Street (corner of 4th St and L St) Davis, California

A group of Design students recently did an audio presentation about the Davis Bike Collective. Their goal was to make a 3 minute audio piece that would introduce the listener to the Davis Bike Collective. They just shared it with us for our use!

Thanks Prerna Dudani, Jenna Bondlow, Ka Mei kwan, and Yekaterina Novikova for making and sharing this with us!
