Southside Workshop for Exploring Appropriate Technologies

SWEAT stencil

SWEAT is located in the backyard and garages of CAMP. Check out photos of the bikeshop in action!

The kids' program promotes bicycles to neighborhood youth by providing the tools, space, and skills to work and learn. Every Saturday from 1pm-5pm, the Bike Shop is open for assisting Cherokee/Gravois Park neighbors ages 6-18 with their bicycle problems. Kids can also enroll in our Earn-A-Bike program by helping others repair their bicycles, and in return receive a bicycle of their own. This also functions as our open shop time at the moment.

CALL FOR VOLUNTEERS WANT TO LEARN to FIX A BIKE? GOT SKILLS? SHARE THEM! We need volunteers who want to work with kids and bikes. Whether you've never touched a cone wrench or if you're a pro, come learn the basics, brush up on your skills, share your mechanical mastery, and hang out with other bike-minded people. Contact us if you're interested in bikes, kids, or just want to get involved!

 

Img0312CALL FOR PROGRAM COORDINATORS We are looking for people willing to be part of a team running new programs for the Bike Shop. We would like to see classes for adults, more open studio hours, and are open to new ideas. Contact us if you're interested in helping us grow!

GOT BIKES? DONATE! We need all types of bikes: especially kids bikes! As our storage capacity allows, we accept donations: old or new, flat or just-a-little-dusty. Adult volunteers will assist kids of the Cherokee/Gravois Park neighborhood to fix them up or use the parts ... and the kids will RIDE THEM HOME
