The Rotary Club of Wellesley held its fourth Café at the Wellesley Recreation Center on April 6th from 10:00 AM to 1:00 PM.
Coaches and attendees repaired several lamps, several toys, a dehumidifier, 2 fans, a stool, a microwave, a weather vane for a barn roof, and a Cuisinart impeller blade. Jennifer, from the Wellesley Library set up a “mobile library station” with lots of DIY and “fix it” books. The comments from the attendees ranged from “fantastic” to “excellent”.
Repair Cafés are free meeting places and they’re all about repairing things (together). At the Café, attendees found tools, materials to make most repairs, and volunteer coaches ready to help fix broken items.
Our next Café is at the Council on Aging on June 21st.
