Repair Yourself Cafe May 24th!

5/23/2014

Arroyo S.E.C.O. Network of Time Banks member Nadine Lego is back from a year's adventure circling the globe!  Last year's "Repair Yourself Cafe" , which Nadine coordinated, was such a success that Repair Cafe and the Arroyo SECO Network of Time Banks will again host an afternoon smorgasbord of self-healing sessions, each about 25 minutes. This deliciously luxurious afternoon can be paid for with time dollars for the length of time you are present. There will be six half-hour sessions offered. Folks who are not yet Time Bankers are of course welcome.

The Armory Center for the Arts studio will be transformed into a "day spa" of yoga, Spa water, free hugs and much more. Parents welcome childcare provided. Give yourself the gift of self care or offer your community your nurturing gift.

A Chinese proverb says that "The scent of the rose remains on the hand of the giver."  Repair Cafe knows this to be true!

Repair Café and Throop Learning Garden Receive Awards

4/3/2013

Two Green City Awards were received by projects near and dear to Time Bankers' hearts at this year's Earth and Arts Festival.  Congrats to us! Repair Cafe, awarded for Waste Reduction, has hosted eight events this past year which have rescued nearly 300 items from becoming landfill, moving our city closer to its goal of Zero Waste by 2040.  The Repair Cafe was in full swing at the festival and utilized 25 volunteers, most of whom are Time Bankers.  Conversations with curious passersby covered topics from zero waste to localizing our economy, time banking, sharing skills, to neighborhood fruit picking and the Transition Movement's cheerful approach to divesting from unsustainable fossil fuels to heal this planet.  Save the date! Next Repair Cafe Saturday June1, 10-1 Throop Hall will include the Really Really Free Market, Potluck on the Patio and more!

Throop Learning Garden took the second award for Urban Nature.  Nearly 200 volunteers including many Time Bankers have contributed to this public garden over the last two years.  It is a blooming success for drawing attention to urban food growing, creating habitat for creatures small to large and demonstrating the change that adding nature to a busy urban setting can bring to its workers, its passersby, its local community.   The next goal for the garden is designation as Certified Wildlife Habitat by National Wildlife Federation in hopes of spreading this awareness as well.  It is worth looking into if your backyard has  become attractive to more birds, bees, bats, bugs and other creatures.  Only four components are required.  http://www.nwf.org/How-to-Help/Garden-for-Wildlife/Certify-Your-Wildlife-Garden.aspx?campaignid=WH09ASLP   Lets make a nature habitat corridor through the Arroyo!   Thanks to all who have helped attract the city's attention to these timely projects. You deserve to feel proud.  Tell someone how your contribution to your community has had a huge rippling effect for healing the environment.
