What is a Time Bank?
A Time Bank is a record keeping of the time that people spend doing things for other people.
For each HOUR of service that you do something for someone, you earn a "TIME DOLLAR".
As you save up your Time Dollars in "the bank", you can redeem them to have someone else do something for YOU!

How is the Warner Area TimeBank doing?
The Warner Area TimeBank officially began operating in the Fall of 2009.
After several small presentations at various locations within the town of Warner to explain what Time Banking is all about, there were enough people interested in making it happen.

As of last count we are now 35 members!
Among these members, there have been over two dozen service exchanges, including:

  • cordwood stacking;

  • mushroom discovery & recognition;

  • garden roto-tilling;

  • window washing;

  • guitar music performance at a Pot Luck dinner;

  • website updating & maintenance;

  • designing invitations on your own computer;

  • computer help (Mac);

  • knitting lessons;

  • pet sitting (& walking, too!);

  • preparing vegetarian meals;

  • desktop publishing services;

  • ride provided to airport;

  •
