TIME DOLLAR MEETUP REVIEW

From Joel - 9/5/10: Sunday afternoon's Meetup was intimate, but lively. The occasion was the monthly Phoenixville Area Time Bank social, usually held every first Sunday at 4 pm at The Artisan's Cafe and Gallery on Bridge Street in Phoenixville. This time, we met at Wolfgang's Books across the street, since The Artisan's was in the process of moving next door.

Bev, a prospective member from Royersford, brought a pile of used books to the coffee table, and then Fran and her husband Rich joined us. Bev asked how she could learn more about what the Time Bank offers, so Fran and Rich shared the many services they had received--from electrical help, bicycle repair, and a weight loss program--to ride to the airport for their annual Time Share vacation. Bev was sold! She is joining the Time Bank.

We also talked about our October 30th annual Dance~Silent Auction coming up. Wolfgang's closes at 5:00 pm on Sunday afternoons. but we could have continued our conversations much longer and enoyed our meeting time. At any rate, it seemed right on this Labor Day weekend to stop when we did.

Hope to see you next at the next Meetup--the first Sunday of the month, 10/3 at The Artisan's, as usual!
