KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – After a quarter of a century of service to the Riviera community, the Konocti Lions Club was discontinued several years ago due to the aging of the members.

There still exists two Lions who were members in the club, Ted Weiper and Harry De Lope.

Because of renewed interest in a Lions Club in the Riviera, an informational meeting will take place on Thursday, June 25, at 7 p.m. at the Clear Lake Riviera community room located at Soda Bay Road and Fairway Drive, adjacent to the Blue Moon Café.

Current sponsoring Lions from the Mountain Lions Club will be on hand to provide information and to answer questions regarding Lions International and what the Lions Club would do to assist those less fortunate in our community.

Anyone interested in this community project is invited to the meeting.

Call Harry De Lope at 707-279-2414 for more information.

LAKEPORT, Calif. – The Hooves and Wheels Driving Club drill team will be performing at Californio Days’ Fiesta of the Horse.

The event takes place beginning at 10:30 a.m. Sunday, June 28, at Rancho de la Fuente, 2290 Soda Bay Road, south of Lakeport. Admission is free.

This is the driving club's third year of performing at the event.

This year they have 10 members of the club driving minis to small ponies. They have been practicing since April at Argonaut Farm in Lakeport and meet weekly practicing a routine created by Sally Green and Carol Thorn.

This year's theme in dress and music is paired with the theme of Californio Days.

Learning and practicing the drill they say is fun, great exercise for the ponies and teaches the drivers and their ponies many skills.

The members drive everything from draft horses down to miniature horses and their events are open all equestrians, ridden or driven.

LAKEPORT, Calif. – There couldn’t be a better time for time banking than this summer, as the Time Bank of Thrive Lake County is offering to kick in one hOur for every hour you spend helping a fellow time banker all summer long, from June 21 to Sept. 23.

Example: You help Mrs. Smith for two hours by digging up her garden. As the recipient of the service, Mrs. Smith credits you with two hours.

The time bank sees your exchange and awards you, the service provider, with an additional two hours from the time bank account, giving you a total of four hours for helping Mrs. Smith.

How to get started: If you’re not a member, join the time bank by applying at http://timebanklakeco.org .

Once you’re a time bank member, log into the time bank at http://timebanklakeco.org , look at who needs help and connect with them. Hint: Click on the "Requests" button, then click on the "Browse Requests Directory" button.

Then, do the work and have the recipient of the service credit you for the time spent.

Don't forget to post your own request for help and reach out to time bankers and non-time bankers alike. Tell them about this promotion and get them to join the time bank, if they are not yet time bank members.

All summer time bank exchanges must be recorded by Sept. 30.

Time Bankers exchange time instead  of money for services. Membership is open to any Lake County resident, business or organization.
