Re: [TheThinkTank] Does your program do Earn-a-Bike?
Hi Terry,
I'd love to help you guys get your info into the spreadsheet.
Same goes for anyone else out there who's having trouble getting access to the spreadsheet, or knows of a project who's not so tech-access oriented. Feel free to forward my contact info and this list of fields on to anyone you think would benefit from it.
Also, if there's any info anyone feels belongs on this list, by all means, either add the column yourself, if you're comfortable, or hit me up off list and I'll do it.
Here's a list of the fields we have listed for shops to include info about if they so choose:
Name of community bike shop Street Address City State/Province Zip Country Phone Website Email address for contact Open Hours Women/Trans night? Youth Earn-a-Bike program? Youth programs? Build - a - Bike program adult? Other Programs? Sell bikes? Contact person Rolling/Roving/Portable bike repair program? Free/Referral Bike Program? Paid Staff? 501 C 3 status? Or fiscal sponsor? Board of Directors? Decision-making process (majority vote, consensus, modified consensus, informal, top-down) Open to Woofing type worker exchange? Contact person or details Awesome Logo Something you're proud of that other folks may not know about Mission Statement Date/Year founded What kind of hierarchy is there for volunteers? What's the process for one to go from completely new "outsider" to trusted person with keys?
If you'd like to send me that info, I'll enter it when i get a chance.
And if you'd like, i can download ad send a non-online copy in excel or as a csv file for you to checkout, if you're interested in seeing what other shops are doing. It's quite incredible to see so man active people doing such amazing work. The more I learn about different shops and organizations, the more I feel I have in common with these folks, but at the same time, how different we all are. It's pretty awesome.
Thanks!
josh.

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.

There might be a way to get some free locks, lights, fenders and other goodies for EAB programs if we can pull together a list of at least 100 EAB programs.
If you know of a program, or you are part of a program, please list it in Column "L" of this spreadsheet.
