Mr. Hill has been a volunteer at Bworks for six years, helping teach the Earn A Bike program and supporting the program with his knowledge and time. His volunteering helped us grow the Earn a Bike program each season and over the years we have watched him grow his mechanical ability into a teaching ability. For the last couple years He has been studying at UMSL to complete his teaching certificate.
Mr. Hill has accepted the position of Program Lead, he will be leading our efforts to offer our programs to even more students through extended programing hours and off site programming in 2012.
Congratulations to Tom!

In response to the perceived demand for an after-work class (in addition to after-school and weekend classes), we are offering a Tuesday evening class, 6:30 to 7:45. Perfect for parents who want to volunteer at Bicycle or Byte Works during that time!
Please email us at Info@bworks.org for more info!

Our Earn-A-Bike, Earn-A-Computer and Book Works programs provide kids the incentive and opportunity to develop their academic, vocational, and social skills. We’re always looking for more instructors, and there’s no need for you to be a bike mechanic, techie or author! By committing to volunteer a few hours a week and sharing your knowledge, you can help kids learn the importance of responsibility, respect, communication, problem solving, critical thinking and community awareness.
Join us for Instructor Orientation at 7:00 p.m. on Thursday, September 29th to learn more about our programs, see our new building in Soulard, and meet other instructors. It’s the perfect time to get involved!
