Beautiful purebred female Husky needs home.
by Liz Ebel 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

Hi everyone, I am posting for a friend who is desperate for a good home for her 4 year old Husky, Chula. My friend is dealing with caring for an elderly mom who just moved in with her small dog, and her son with Down's, along with working horrible hours at Giant Eagle. She thought she had a good place for her beloved dog but it is not working out due to the new owner's health issues...he can't walk the dog or care for her. Can someone please help? Even a temporary placement/foster is preferable to her going to a shelter...which she is desperately trying to avoid. Chula is a healthy 4 year old spayed Husky, 70 pounds, all vetting UTD, and absolutely gorgeous. Loves her people. Easy to walk on leash. Good with other big dogs, probably should not go to a home with cats or very small dogs. I can send pics via text. Will add pics to this once I receive them for her. Please help Chula! Thank you! Send text for pics Liz 412.496.7339

Highland Park Garden Club Tours 8/30/14 at 10:00 AM
by Nancy Schultz 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

Join the Garden Club this Saturday for tours of 2 creative neighborhood vegetable gardens. The Borland Community Garden is first, at 10:00 AM. We will tour and hear how a blighted vacant lot was transformed into this pretty, creative neighborhood community garden, complete with chickens. (The garden is located behind Obama Academy-take Stanton Avenue to Beatty Street and continue to the garden entrance). Immediately after, we will visit a Board Member's garden, with a "how-to" tour and discussion for turning your backyard into a productive vegetable smorgasbord. Rachel has some very inexpensive and creative ideas to share. Hope to see you at 10:00 AM this Saturday, August 30th. Nancy Schultz Nancyschultz13(a)gmail.com

Redux: Big Pour tix, LLS, and no ice bucket!
by Helen Blier 28 Aug '14

28 Aug '14

Friends - I sent this message earlier this week, and apparently the site has been on and off with maintenance issues. I also have found that if you try to access it from a Mac, there can be problems. Dunno why, but I don't want any of that to get in the way of you getting your shot at the BIG POUR TICKETS! Let me know if you've tried to donate but got stymied. We'll work something out. Ever grateful for your generosity, Helen (the creaky-kneed one) ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Helen Blier <pacem1(a)gmail.com> Date: Mon, Aug 25, 2014 at 10:40 AM Subject: Big Pour tix, LLS, and no ice bucket! To: "neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com" <neighborhood(a)highlandparkpa.com> ...unless you want to chill your beers in one. Just a reminder, good neighbors, that I'm fundraising for a half marathon run in honor of one of Highland Park's very own. The run benefits LLS, not ALS - and according to the National Cancer Institute, more than 156,000 people a year are diagnosed with blood cancer. It accounts for over 9% of all new cancer cases. Please consider donating to this cause. My nephew, my dad, and my neighbor are alive because of research funded in part by LLS. *http://pages.teamintraining.org/vtnt/nikesf14/hblier <http://pages.teamintraining.org/vtnt/nikesf14/hblier>* And best yet - if you donate before Friday, your name gets put in the hat for a pair of *BIG POUR TICKETS*! First session, Sept 6. $15 gets your name in once, $25 gets it in twice. ($50? 5 times!) http://www.constructionjunction.org/pages/bigpour (Tix sold out in minutes, fwiw) The ALS challenge has demonstrated the generosity folks are capable of expressing. Thanks in advance for considering this cause. Gratefully, *Your middle-aged neighbor on the creaky knees, **Helen*
