Learn More about Volunteering

How can I learn more and stay in touch?

  • Website: source of lot of information about Free Ride. http://www.FreeRidePgh.Org
  • Email list: join this list to participate in discussions and receive announcements. Notices of when we need open shop staffers are sent on this list. Subscribe through the web, or email Free Ride (volunteers@freeridepgh.org) to join the list.
  • Crabgrass Wiki: To stay organized, Free Ride uses this Web resource to post information about Free Ride. Go to the web site, register, and ask for an invite, saying that you are a Free Ride member. https://we.riseup.net/freeride_council
  • Come to General Council Meetings. Those are held once a month, usually on the first Sunday at 1 pm. Location and agenda are posted in the shop and on the wiki (https://we.riseup.net/freeride_council). All are welcome. Come to learn more and offer your ideas.

P.S. we don’t give our lists to ANYONE and we don’t send many emails.

Open Shop Coordination

The staff calendar is our main way to schedule opening and running the shop.

Feel free to add yourself to an upcoming day as either staff or shadow.
