Cones in HP
by CZURI FRANK 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

Who had the “brilliant” idea of putting those horrible white cones in Highland Park? It’s difficult and a little confusing when entering the park from Highland Avenue. The real killer is that ridiculous 90’ one-lane turn onto Farmhouse Road! So many ugly cones spoiling the aesthetic of our beautiful park, so many wasted parking spaces and such a horrible traffic pattern!! I’m guessing it has something to do with bicycles. But so much change for such a small percentage of bicyclists? I understand the green benefits, but whoever designed this is focused on a tiny portion of people using the Park. I bet they’ve never “utilized” Highland Park, a crown jewel in the City of Pittsburgh. Frank Czuri Www.frankczuri.com

Election Day Bake Sale
by Shannon Daly Striner 22 Apr '24

22 Apr '24

Hi neighbors! Many schools are your polling places for primary election day Tuesday 4/23, including Fulton and Dilworth elementary schools in Highland Park. Please consider supporting your neighborhood public schools' PTAs by purchasing some yummy treats when you vote Tuesday! Fulton's bake sale was featured in the Tribune Review in the fall and we'd love to see you stop by. If you stop by Fulton, we'd also love to talk to you about how you can advocate for strong public schools in our community amidst the budget challenges the school district is facing. Fulton is an elementary school with great outcomes for all of its students, like my daughter Sienna who has Down syndrome and benefits tremendously from the supportive and caring environment. Fulton’s success is not only our success, but the success of so many other kids in our neighborhood. We need your help to ensure that elected officials at every level of government recognize the value of programs like Fulton's and how it supports students and families across our community. See you Tuesday! Tribune article from the Fall about our bake sale: https://triblive.com/local/valley-news-dispatch/election-day-bake-sales-mea… Take care, Shannon Striner Fulton Mom and Highland Park resident shannonstriner(a)gmail.com

Neighbors making Homemade dog food
by Laura Gordon 21 Apr '24

21 Apr '24

Hello, If there are other HP neighbors out there making their dog's food at home, I would be interested in connecting and exchanging email addresses. I have been doing this for close to two years with ongoing successes and failures. I'm thinking it might be helpful to share information and experience with others on topics like sourcing ingredients and supplements locally, tips/techniques/lessons learned, non-dizzying nutritional guidelines and supportive local vets. Thanks, Laura
