LAKEPORT, Calif. – Thrive Lake County will hold its fourth quarter meeting on Tuesday, Nov. 13, from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Lakeport Senior Center, 527 Konocti Ave.

Terry Daniels from hOurworld and The Hour Exchange is the featured presenter.

The Hour Exchange in Portland, Maine is one of the oldest and largest time exchanges in the United States, with more than 1,000 members trading over 20,000 hours annually. hOurworld was formed to take the lessons learned from the Hour Exchange and make it available to a wider audience.

Daniels has been working with Thrive Lake County for the last two months to set the stage for a Lake County pilot project of the CommonWealth – a unique and innovative program from hOurworld that will utilize a cooperative business model and time as an alternative currency to bring about grassroots economic development.

Daniels will be interviewed about the CommonWealth and will share more about the upcoming Lake County pilot project due to launch in the first quarter of 2013.

Time also will be provided during the meeting for attendees to share community updates on relevant projects around the county.

The event is a potluck; please bring an item to share. Admission is free with a potluck item or $5 without.
