This event brings together skilled volunteer Repair Coaches and residents seeking to repair household items. Participants are invited to bring items such as lamps, clothing, small appliances, wooden items, small furniture, toys, and electronics for evaluation and repair.

Items powered by gas engines (e.g., lawn mowers, chainsaws, and other gas-powered landscaping equipment) are not eligible for repair. Additionally, computers and digital devices will not be repaired at this event.

Repair Coaches will evaluate and fix items for free, provided the necessary materials are on hand. These talented volunteers are eager to share their expertise, preserving the art of repair while fostering community connections.

“The ability to fix and repair items is becoming a lost art,” said County Executive Ed Day. “The Repair Café not only celebrates this essential skill but also encourages its transfer to the younger generation, ensuring these talents continue to thrive in Rockland County. Events like this reduce landfill waste, foster sustainability, and strengthen our community ties.”

The Rockland Repair Café is a free, youth-friendly event made possible through the support of Rockland Conservation & Service Corps, a program of the Rockland County Youth Bureau, along with Rockland Green, Pearl River United Methodist Church, and the Pearl River Library. Volunteer Repair Coaches from Woodcraft & Willow and IBEW LU 363 will also participate.

For more information, or to confirm if a Repair Coach can fix your item, please call Kathy Galione at (845) 364-2932, or email [email protected].

When: Saturday, November 23rd, 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM
Where: Pearl River United Methodist Church, 130 Franklin Avenue, Pearl River, NY

The rescued alligator has captured a great deal of interest from the community so HVHS wanted to provide an update. “The herpetology expert from the Bronx Zoo was kind enough to come by and take a look at our friend to assess his overall health and “HE” is in pretty good shape! Yes … we have a BOY! We have two names going for him one is “Philippe” the other is “Al E. Gator” and we would like help from the community to weigh in on which name is preferred.” The HVHS continue to support him in warming up. The DEC has been a great help too and they are assisting us with placement which, in NYS, requires specific credentials. Stay tuned for more updates. #hvhsny #haverstrawpd #alligator #safeatthehvhsny #bronxzoo #reptileinnewyork #ittakesavillage #garnervilleny #rescued #grateful
