free VHS tapes
by Edith Bell 25 Apr '19

25 Apr '19

I have about 90 VHS tapes, I would like to give away. They are mostly copied from PBS shows in the 1990’s. Since I live in the Highrise at the park, I cannot put them on any porch for people to come and get them. So contact me, if you are interested. Edith

Negley Run Water Walk - May 4th
by Stephanie Walsh 25 Apr '19

25 Apr '19

The Negley Run Watershed is the City's largest watershed and includes, among other areas, a small part of eastern Highland Park and Washington Blvd. Like most of the streams in the City of Pittsburgh, Negley Run is invisible to us today. The "Negley Run Was Here" tour is an effort to discover the traces of Negley Run and to understand how it shaped our community in the past and to speculate on what it could mean today. This event is free and open to everyone! Coordinated by WaterWalks with Creative Action for Community Justice, the tour will be on *Sat. May 4 at 11 am*. The walking tour will meet at Zeke's Drive Thru (6314 Broad Street) and last 1.5 to 2 hours. A version of the *Negley Run Was Here* walk was completed in 2015, and you can find a short video recording from it here <https://www.youtube.com/watch?list=PL66CsOUvJ2G5lRXu2jJ85y3eVYp1kecCm&v=pSj…>. Also, if you’re interested in learning more about the location and sites, take a look at this <http://www.a42.livingwaterspgh.org/wp-content/uploads/2015/06/negley-run-to…> map; printed versions will be available on the day of the walk. Please let the organizers know if you’ll be able to join the walk by visiting the following link: bit.ly/waterwalks2. The Facebook event is here <https://www.facebook.com/events/348349625800981/>. This event is free and open to everyone! A flyer is attached. Please share with your friends, neighbors and colleagues. Stephanie [image: image.png]

by Justin Sandherr 24 Apr '19

24 Apr '19

Dear Highland Park: In celebration of Earth Day 2019, we're organizing the 3rd Bi-annual neighborhood clean-up. Over the winter and throughout the year, our streets become lined with bottles, cans, plastic, paper, and other items. If we pull together some teamwork, a little love for our planet, and a bit of hard work, we can brighten up our streets and keep litter out of our waterways and sewers. Or, If you're just looking to add some steps to your fitbit, meet some new friends / neighbors, or get involved in the community, join us rain or shine! *When: *Saturday April 27, 2019 at 10 AM *Who: *Highland Park Neighbors, Businesses, and Friends (Adults and Children are welcome) *Where: *Start / End at Fulton Elementary (5799 Hampton St.) *Interested in Participating / Donating Supplies: *Contact Justin Sandherr at Justin.Sandherr(a)Gmail.com Thanks! Justin Sandherr
