Free drapes, whole and parts
by Susan Zelicoff 06 Jun '22

06 Jun '22

Over many years and a few adult children, I have accumulated MANY drapes of various lengths of white, off-white and probably shades in between, mostly smooth (not much texture), but some have a bit of texture. I believe they all have tabs (flat loops about 1.5 inches wide, 1-3” long). Most are hemmed but some may have a raw edge if a needed some fabric for some other project. Free porch pick up. Just let me know with at least a day in advance so I can set it out on the covered side porch for you.

House cleaning service recommendations
by Jenifer Davison 06 Jun '22

06 Jun '22

Hi neighbors, Since I received so many great roofing recommendations, I thought this would be the best place to get house cleaning service recommendations. We are in need of a service (preferably 2 people for the job) that does deep clean of the kitchen, 2 bathrooms, living dining and 4 bedrooms. If you know of any service please send their info my way. Best, Jeni

What a great day yesterday - Thank you!
by Highland Park Community Council 06 Jun '22

06 Jun '22

It was great to see so many people out and about in the neighborhood yesterday, enjoying the Yard Sale and the Bryant Street Festival. The weather couldn't have been more perfect! We'll post pictures on our website soon. The HPCC is happy to be able to bring you these events, but it's only possible with the work of many people. Thank you: - *Bob Staresenic *- Bob is a long-time HP resident, an HPCC board member, and has done the heavy lifting in terms of organizing the Bryant Street Festival for many years. - *Jason Griess and Kanoko Kamata *- Jason and Kanoko are relatively new to the neighborhood and when our former yard sale organizer had to step down, they jumped at the opportunity to step up and organize the yard sale. - *Neighborhood Volunteers *- Thank you to those of you who helped at the festival with set-up and clean-up, who organized and ran our kids' activity, and, to our newsletter editor and website manager, who got the word out! - *HPCC Board Members *- Events like this are a lot of work: distributing and collecting yard sale signs, setting up, staffing the HPCC table, organizing the 50-50 raffle, cleaning-up, processing payments, paying bills, and many other logistics. The HPCC board is an engaged & dynamic group of volunteers who get things done! And finally, thank you *HPCC members and donors*! Your contributions make events like this possible. If you're not a member yet, or if you'd like to make a donation so that we can continue to bring you events like this, please visit our website today! <https://hpccpgh.org/> Best - Stephanie Walsh HPCC President
