SUMMARY:Fix-it Clinic at A Better Society
DESCRIPTION:It’s that time of year again! Carver County Environmental Services and local non-profit A Better Society are teaming up to bring more Fix-it Clinics to Carver County. Registration is required. Visit the A Better Society website for information to register to participate or volunteer.: https://www.abettersociety.org/fix-it-clinics/\n\n\nAt these free events\, volunteers help attendees fix items that may otherwise end up being disposed of. These items include vacuums\, clothing\, small engines\, bicycles\, and a variety of other small household items.\n\n\nEvents like these are a great opportunity not only to get items fixed and kept out of the landfill but also foster community and discussion about waste reduction and the “throw-away” mentality.\n\n\nAt this event residents have the opportunity to sit down with a volunteer fixer to talk about their item and work together toward a repair. If an item cannot not be fixed\, volunteers will try their best to diagnose the problem and provide the resident with part numbers\, other repair options or recycling and disposal alternatives.\n\nAlso\, don’t forget to “Save the Date” for our  additional Fix-it clinics on August 1!
