    Friday shop hours are closed, but we are planning a new mechanic workshop tentatively March 20th. Come to our volunteer meeting for more details.

    Thanks to everyone for making our anniversary events a success. The shows were great, the scavenger hunt went well, and the movie rocked. Plan on coming to our third anniversary next year! Of course if you can’t wait, there’s always our August Chili Cookoff! Race results are posted below.
