Subject: Re: [TheThinkTank] Does your program do Earn-a-Bike?
i just did a very rough count (there's alot of duplicate entries. through the course of building this juggernaut of a spreadsheet, several lists have been combined. no real effort to do any data cleanup has happened on any real level, to my knowledge. if anyone's interested, by all means get in touch.) and found about 40 projects that have some kind of youth EAB connection.
There's a lot of projects listed on the spreadsheet who aren't active on this list. Perhaps it would be good for someone (or someoneS) to reach out to some of the shops listed with not a lot of info, and try to glean some info such as "Do you have a YEAB program?" but also "Are you interested in perhaps joining forces for some potential free locks, etc...?"
Would take some work, to be sure, but how much is all that free stuff worth? There's enough people here that if we divvied up the work, and several people took one or two calls to make,it wouldn't be that bad.
What do you think? Worth the effort?

Until we get a list of 100 youth EAB programs, there is no way to get
the goodies. Or rather, only at that point can we begin that
conversation.
At Interbike (the place that most co-ops neglect to send people) I
spoke with a supplier of lights, locks, fenders, etc.,... and they
shared the fact that they want to redistribute all the refurbished
products (with fully warranty) specifically to at least 100 youth EAB
programs. So please help me fill in that spreadsheet.
Sincerely,
Jonathan Morrison
