More information can be found below. Sign up here to volunteer! \nLocation: The Bikes Not Bombs warehouse at 10 Harvard Street in Dorchester\, MA 02124. \n  \nTypical scene at a container loading\, as volunteers help load bikes into the shipping container \nDate and Times: \nThursday May 28th: \n\n10 AM to 1 PM (no container present yet\, but critical preparation!)\n\nFriday May 29th and Saturday May 30th: \n\n9:30 AM to 1:00 PM\n12:30 PM to 4 PM\n\nSunday May 31st (as a back-up shift; this may be cancelled if we finish early) \n\n10 AM to 2 PM\n\n  \n  \nWhat to Expect: Volunteers will arrive and be assigned certain roles. Most roles will require lifting bicycles throughout the day.

We welcome all people to help for any amount of time\, and volunteers may register for as many shifts as they are available. \nWe advise you wear closed-toed shoes and clothing you are not worried about getting dirty. Dress appropriately for the weather as the warehouse does not have climate control and work will be performed outside. Bring your own work gloves if you have them. Coffee and donuts will be provided for volunteers in the morning and pizza in the afternoon. \nWho are we shipping the bikes to? Learn more about Learn\, Work\, Develop! \nQuestions?
