These sessions can only be held when a member of our community steps in. Thank you! [resonanceimprov.org/volunteer-portal](http://resonanceimprov.org/volunteer-portal) **THE SCHEDULE:** * 5:30 PM - Welcoming Intro Workshop: Designed for absolute beginners.

It is an incredibly connecting, collaborative experience where neighbors support neighbors. **ATTENDANCE & ACCESSIBILITY:** Sillygander features an Open-Door Policy—no tickets, registrations, or confirmation codes are needed.

This is an opportunity for volunteers to support a professional mechanic as he guides customers working on their own bikes. If you know how to do some basic repairs, that's a plus, but even if you don't, you can greet customers and manage who gets helped next. Feel free to attend for only a portion of the time if you can't be there the whole three hours. Please note that this event is not usually an opportunity to learn about bicycle repair, since the mechanic tends to be very busy helping customers, especially during the warmer months. But it's a great way to contribute to Velocity, since almost all the funding for the volunteer program comes from the work done at the shops.

Queer Alexandria MeetUp members are going! Come join us! We will be in section 228! See you there!!!

Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces.

With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events.

Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
