[Highland Park] re: stolen kayak?
by Sean Patrick Rice 31 Aug '09

31 Aug '09

the kayak was taken to the police and is being returned to it's owner. thanks for the responses. --Sean From: Sean Patrick Rice <seanpatrickrice(a)gmail.com> To: neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com Date: Fri, 28 Aug 2009 17:26:31 -0400 Subject: [Highland Park] stolen kayak? Last night when I was walking my dog, two young boys (mid teens?) were carrying a kayak down the street, which seemed suspicious to me, especially at that late hour. As I got closer to them, one of the boys asked me if I wanted to buy a 'canoe'. Assuming it was stolen, I pretended to get angry and said it was my kayak and I was walking around the neighborhood looking for it. My pretend anger and large dog must have been enough persuasion for the boys, because they dropped the kayak and ran off. I carried it back to my place, where it is in safe storage, locked up. If you are missing a kayak, or know some one who is, please email me back with the type of kayak and colour, and I will gladly return it to you. As a side note too, since bike thefts seemed to be pretty high earlier this summer, it might be a good reminder to everyone to check the status of their recreational gear, and remember to try to keep it locked up somehow, if it has to be outside. --Sean

[Highland Park] want to sell your jogging stroller?
by Martha Riecks 31 Aug '09

31 Aug '09

I'm looking to buy a gently-used jogging stroller this fall. Ideally, I'd like one that is in good condition and readily rolls through the grass and gravel paths up in the park - and is light enough to easily carry up and down the flight of stairs between my house and the street. If you have one you are interested in selling, please email me the details at mriecks(a)gmail.com - Thanks!

[Highland Park] Crawling Club 2
by Annika O'Malley 31 Aug '09

31 Aug '09

My name is Annika O'Malley. A short time ago, I posted a message about establishing a "crawling club" for mothers of pre-school children in the Highland Park area. Due to a very limited response, I am posting again hoping to reach those who may have missed it the first time. We are hoping to meet once a week, rotating between members homes, to make new friends and exchange ideas. All are welcome. We look forward to hearing from you, and meeting you soon! annika & Emma
