Cub Scouts
by Rudolph T. Maceyko 20 Mar '19

20 Mar '19

Hello Highland Park Neighbors. I'm the Cubmaster of Cub Scout Pack 343. We're your neighborhood Cub Scout pack over at St. Raphael Church. Please let me know if you have any interest in Cub Scouts. It's a fun family-oriented program for youth in Kindergarten through fifth grade that helps develop character and skills. I'd be happy to talk with you about it. KINDERGARTNERS Kindergartners can now join Cub Scouts. Previously, the program began with first graders. We will add a "Lion den" (what we call a group of Kindergartners) in the fall if we have enough support. GIRLS We will try to add girls in the pack in the fall as well. This would be a great option for families, so the boys and the girls can join together. Again, we'll need support from interested families in order for this to work. Let me know if you're interested (including Kindergartners and girls) so you can be involved in the discussions and perhaps can visit us to see what we're all about. Yours in Scouting, Rudy 412-414-6189 PS: Cub Scouts is a program offered through Boy Scouts of America (BSA). Girl Scouts is also a great program (my daughter is in a local Girl Scout troop) just for girls, offered through Girl Scouts of the USA. They both have merits. You should consider your options and make an informed decision! Rudolph T. Maceyko, Cubmaster Pack 343, Pittsburgh PA https://beascout.scouting.org

Every year I recommend a cleaning of your computer. I will delete temp files, scan for viruses, optimize your performance. I'd also vacuum out your desktop tower. Give me a call and I'll fine tune your machine to it's best performance possible. I charge 40 an hour if I work on your machine via remote assistance and 50 an hour in person. Give me a call to find out if you need my help or not. Either way, I'm here for you! As usual, I will take care of any and all your computer needs!

ISO occasional care for 2yo girl
by Sheila Saykiewicz 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

ISO very occasional care (i.e. once every few months?) for my 2yo daughter on days that my nanny is unable to cover- specifically we have a need for *Monday, May 13th, 9am-5pm*. Hours would generally be 8am-4pm or 9am-5pm (or perhaps shorter 3-4 hours days- we can talk if you are interested), and we would drop her off/pick her up at your house. I know my schedule weeks in advance so this wouldn't be "emergency/day-of care". If it is easier/preferred, you are welcome to come to our house- we have plenty of pack'n'plays/bedrooms for nap time if you bring your child(ren), a double stroller, lots of toys/space, fenced yard, friendly dog, etc- 900 block of N St Clair. Pay is $15/hour. Ideally looking for SAHM/D in Highland Park but open to Morningside/Stanton Heights/Friendship. Thank you! Sheila

Free items on porch
by Kate Porigow 19 Mar '19

19 Mar '19

I have a couple of boxes of misc. items on the front porch at 849 N. St. Clair - decoratives, small wine glasses, random kitchen items, a crockpot, a hanging mirror, and more. I'll leave them out until the 21st. (It's on the corner of Jackson with hedges all around, and there are two porches. The items are on the St. Clair porch.) Kate
