Greetings friends,

We've got a major volunteer opportunity and a paid job opening coming up. 
Let us know if you're interested in either.

Volunteer Parking:
Neighborhood Bike Works is again conducting bike parking at Wharton
Business School.  This is a pretty big fund-raising and publicity event,
and we can use all the volunteers we can get.  Parking lot hours are
Monday through Friday, 7am to 6pm.  The event runs from August 9th through
the 27th, and again from September 7th through the 10th.  Call
(215.386.0316) or email ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) if you can help
out.

Paid Work:
Neighborhood Bike Works seeks a part-time Youth Leadership Coordinator. 
This individual must commit to working at least through the 2004-2005
school year, preferably longer.  The individual must have bike repair and
youth work experience, must own a bike and helmet, must be able to ride
fifteen miles with a loaded trailer, must be adaptable and have a sense of
humor.  Compensation is $10/hour; promotion and/or full time work is
possible.

At NBW we believe that youth are a resource, not merely the people we
serve.  Our students have shown us that they are willing and able to take
responsible leadership roles in our organization.  The Youth Leadership
Coordinator will help youth step into these new roles.  Duties include:
* Recruiting for and facilitating Leadership Group, with the aim of youth
joining NBW's board advisory panel.
* Working with youth to organize and lead bike rides and other activities
* Working with youth to improve NBW curriculum
* Teaching advanced repair classes
* Working with youth to maintain fleet bicycles
* Working with volunteers and youth employees

To apply, send your resume to:
Neighborhood Bike Works
3916 Locust Walk
Philadelphia, PA  19104
