The Home Repair & Care Training Center is committed to empowering our community and helping people gain the knowledge and confidence to maintain their homes independently. Our hands-on, interactive Training Center allows you to experience elements of a home and practice working with various tools. You'll learn about the systems of your home, gain the knowledge to make small repairs, and you will walk away with a new appreciation of homeownership!

Build A Basic Workbench - Working With Saws - $60
This workshop is the first in our special series highlighting a tool or set of tools. Saws can be intimidating but in this session, you will learn about and operate a table saw, circular saw, miter saw and hand saw while building a basic workbench which YOU WILL TAKE HOME! Don't need a workbench? You can donate it to be sold at the Athens ReStore. Conquer that fear and take this workshop. You'll be glad you did!
Please bring a truck or have a plan to get your workbench home.
