Neighbors: Either late Saturday evening (in the rain) or Sunday morning my vehicle was broken into. The glove box was left open, and audio cassettes were strewn around, as well as stolen. This is the second event in as many months. I reside in the 5900 block of Wellesley Avenue.

To whom it may concern, Mr. Cleve Cook did a fine job painting the first , second and third hall ways at our house this past spring. He was reasonably priced, concienscious and very open to suggestions. He is very trustworthy and very repectful of others.

[Highland Park] Forming a Brownie Troop at St. Andrews
by denshawsoulliere＠comcast.net 24 Jun '08

24 Jun '08

Dear Friends and Neighbors, My name is Joan Soulliere and my family and I are moving back to Higland Park this summer. My daughter, Maeve, who is 7.5, has been a Brownie Girl Scout this past year in Massachusetts and has greatly enjoyed and benefitted from the experience. She was able to meet girls from all over rather than just her school. I have been in touch with the Pittsburgh Girl Scout Council and learned that there are over 50 girls on the east side waiting for spots in a Brownie Troop. I am willing to be a Troop Leader and have found a space at St. Andrew's Church for the twice-monthly meetings. Their best time is from 4:00-5:30. Are there girls out there in Highland Park interested in joining Brownies? I am a former children's librarian with lots of experience working with elementary school children and was the "Cookie Mom" for Maeve's troop this past year. I would love for this to work! Brownies is for girls going into grades 1, 2 and 3. No experience necessary! Please email me if you have interest, questions, and if you have a specific afternoon request. The only one not good for me is Monday. Looking forward to hearing from you! - Joan

[Highland Park] Gray and White Cat hit by car this morning
by Bridget M. Jakub 24 Jun '08

24 Jun '08

Hi neighbors, A mostly gray cat with a white belly and possibly white "socks" was hit by a car at Jackson and Negley this morning (Tuesday, 6/24/08) at around 7:15 am. After being hit, the cat ran off in the direction behind 824 N. Negley. The cat appeared to be fairly small, maybe 8 - 10 lbs. If you are missing your cat and she/he meets this description, you might find her/him in this area. Also - call the Animal Rescue League as they are the shelter where animal control officers bring stray and injured animals. Even if they don't have your cat now, they'll know to call you if a cat matching that description is brought in. Their number is 412.661.6452. They might have other suggestions as well. If you see the cat, it's best to call animal control - and post to this list in case someone will know the cat. I've been told that if an animal can be saved after being hit by a car, the ARL will provide medical attention to the animal in the hopes that the owner will call to find their missing pet. Animal control's number is 412.255.2325. After hours, call 911 for assistance. -Bridget, Morningside
