Gather up your broken items and join us for Chatham's 3rd annual Fixit Clinic presented by Chatham Recycles and the Eldredge Public Library!  Fixit Clinics are do-it-together, hands-on community-based exploration and discovery workshops where people bring broken household items and learn to assess, disassemble and possibly repair items instead of throwing them away.  The volunteer coaches can assist with small appliances and electronics, wooden items, bikes, sewing and mending, knitting, fishing equipment and general household items in need of repair. Our hope is attendees will learn more about how items are made, work, and repaired - passing the knowledge along to friends, neighbors and the community at large. 

The event will be held rain or shine at the Eldredge Public Library. Bike repair will be outside.  

Registration is recommended, with priority going to those who register. 

Please keep the following in mind: 

• Please do not bring more than 3 items with you to allow our volunteer coaches and others the opportunity for fixing.
• You will need to carry your items with you and maintain them at all times. Items may not be left and picked up later as the purpose of the event is for you to learn how to repair them.
• There is no guarantee items can and will be fixed. Whether you fix it or not, you will learn something! 

Examples of items to bring: fishing poles, bicycles, clothing and soft household items, chairs and smaller wooden items, lamps, small kitchen appliances, fans, stuffed animals, knitting projects.
