2. Election for Directors
We currently have a number of members running for the Board.
You are also welcome to nominate yourself at the annual meeting.
Board of Directors Election
The Board meets monthly and directors typically volunteer 1 - 4 hours per month. We currently have 3 directors and are hoping to recruit new directors to help us as we transition into a new working relationship with the Dane County Timebank. There has never been a more exciting and important time to be involved with local currency in Madison, Wisconsin.
Currently, our Board is capped at 5 members but we are also seeking to change our by-laws to allow for up to 9 directors.

Reiki Healing
Rebalance, recharge and relax in a one hour Reiki Session!
A Reiki practioner works with the Universal Life Energy and channels it to a client's various energy centers and parts of the body that are blocked or weakened. This stabilizes your energy field, increases your energy flow, and aids the body's natural ability to heal itself. Clients recieve a 1 hour treatment fully clothed and covered with a sheet on a heated massage table, while the practitioner applies light hand pressure directly to or above various areas on the front and back of the body.

raised bed garden building
I have experience building raised bed gardens made of stone and would be happy to work on one for your garden needs. Materials can be acquired for $150+ and will last a longtime which is the plus over a wooden raised bed.
ESL/English/writing tutoring
I have taught English to students of many backgrounds and I am sure I can help you immensely with accent/grammar/writing.
Bernard Lietaer Quote
"While economic textbooks claim that people and corporations are competing for markets and resources, I claim that in reality they are competing for money – using markets and resources to do so. So designing new money systems really amounts to redesigning the target that orients much human effort.
Furthermore, I believe that greed and competition are not a result of immutable human temperament; I have come to the conclusion that greed and fear of scarcity are in fact being continuously created and amplified as a direct result of the kind of money we are using.
