Fix-It Clinic Set for Nov. 4 in Minnetonka

Fix-It Clinics reduce the amount of stuff that gets thrown in the trash and teach basic repair skills.

Hennepin County is hosting a fix-it clinic Sunday, Nov. 4, from 1–5 p.m. at the Minnetonka Community Center.

At these events, county residents can bring in an item that needs fixing and partner with a volunteer with repair skills. Fix-It Clinics reduce the amount of stuff that gets thrown in the trash, teach valuable troubleshooting and basic repair skills, and build community connections.

More information and a list of examples is available at http://www.hennepin.us/fixitclinic.
