what you'll do.
auto basics with bsr mobile is a community workshop for ages 6 to adults — a one-hour drop-in class, twice a month, saturdays and sundays at the new castle trades station. classes run 11am–12pm and 12pm–1pm, so you can pick the slot that works for your day. we cover the things every grown person should know how to do with a car — check fluids, swap a tire, read the dash lights, jump a battery, listen for trouble, and ask the right questions at a shop. kids come with a grown-up. everybody leaves with grease under their nails and more confidence than they walked in with.
