Repair Cafe a Resounding Success!
The Jericho Energy Task Force's first ever Repair Cafe on October 28th was a success. We had a cadre of incredibly accomplished and generous volunteers who worked on items ranging from clothes needing zippers and jewelry needing a light touch to dehumidifiers, oscillating fans, knives needing sharpening, a scythe, a musical teddy bear and oh so many sewing machines.
We had a steady stream of roughly 20 customers bringing in items and our tireless volunteers did what they could to make repairs. The JETF intends to hold another Repair Cafe next spring. We've learned from the first one and believe we can make the next one even better.
