Looking Ahead: June

Sunday, June 7 @ 4:00pm: Join us for a brief New Member Orientation! We will discuss how a time bank got started in the Heights, as well as how to join and participate. Location = 1134 Jerome Street; RSVP = saracotner@yahoo.com

DATE CHANGE: Friday, June 12 @ 7pm:
Join us for a Time Bank Potluck! Bring a dish or a drink to share and earn a time dollar, or just bring yourself and spend a time dollar. Feel free to bring your friends, family, neighbors--or anyone else interested in time banking! Location = 1134 Jerome Street;
RSVP = saracotner@yahoo.com

Looking Back: May

Monthly Potluck: We congregated in the backyard and dined on pizza, spinach and artichoke dip, bruschetta, and chocolate-chip cookie ice-cream sandwiches!
