Repair Fair
Saturday, August 3, 11am to 2pm
Tualatin Library Community Room
Repair Fairs are events where volunteers with “fixing” skills help others fix broken items. The volunteers may be able to repair small appliances like blenders or coffee makers, jewelry, bikes or clothing that needs a new button or a zipper fix. Sign-up your items for repair here: https://bit.ly/2G37NrT.

Please no gas-powered equipment, chainsaws or TVs. Pre-registration does NOT guarantee a spot at the front of the line. The event is still first come, first serve. WAIT TIMES MAY VARY but be prepared for an hour or more.

Want to volunteer to help at the event? Sign up at https://bit.ly/2Z5bea7 or email repairfairoregon@gmail.com.What's in it for them?
