Thanksgiving Food Drive for Seniors
by Highland Park Pittsburgh, PA 10 Nov '20

10 Nov '20

Looking forward to this Thanksgiving holiday - a time of particular need and loneliness for so many people, particularly during this pandemic - the HPCC is organizing a targeted food drive for those served by Vintage Senior Center to help them enjoy a traditional holiday dinner. We are asking for complete sets of Thanksgiving trimmings or Giant Eagle gift cards we can use to purchase trimmings. Donations of $25 would pay for trimmings for a household, but donations of any size would be appreciated! Vintage Senior Center Thanksgiving Trimmings Shopping List (a printable list is also attached) 2 cans of veggies 1 can cranberry sauce 1 can sweet potatoes 1 box stuffing mix 1 box instant potatoes, au gratin potatoes, or corn bread mix 1 jar gravy Either: (A) two 21-oz jars of canned fruit pie filling, OR (B) one 15 oz can pumpkin pie mix and one 12-oz can evaporated milk Boxed pie crust mix: 2 boxes for fruit fillings OR 1 box for pumpkin pie fillings Donations must be dropped off on the porch at 1315 N. Sheridan Ave. by 5 pm, Thursday, November 12. If possible, please put all items for a set of trimmings into a double-bagged brown paper grocery bag with handles. Thank you in advance for your generosity! Since the onset of Covid-19, neighbors have generously been providing donations of nonperishables and toiletries for those served by Vintage: the first week of November we brought over a dozen bags! Our neighborhood is now one of their biggest donors of food, and due in part to our support, they are expanding their food program. Previously they added donations to the package of frozen meals provided to each senior weekly. Now they are giving their clients the opportunity to go “shopping” at their food pantry so that they can choose the extra food and personal items that they want and need.* You're making a difference, neighbors! *Any food or donations collected in excess of what’s needed for Thanksgiving trimmings sets will be donated to Vintage for use in its new food pantry. Warm regards - Stephanie Walsh HPCC President -- *Highland Park Community Council* Visit our website by clicking here. <https://hpccpgh.org/>

Who maintains these 2 areas? Both are looking pretty shabby and cluttered with dead plants, haystacks and political signs.

Has anyone received a package in error? FedEx says it was delivered last week but I was here all day and I suspect it went to the wrong address. It was supposed to be delivered to 1418 Greystone. Let me know if it landed on your porch by mistake. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone

Hello neighbors, Your local Primary Care Doc <http://www.gentilefamilydpc.com/> (my office is right on Bryant Street) and Walk with a Doc chapter leader here with a fun challenge for our neighborhood to do! Please join me for the 2020 Walk with a Doc Kilimanjaro challenge <https://walkwithadoc.org/challenge/>. From November 14-28, participants will virtually trek Kilimanjaro by engaging in physical activities of their choice (walk, swim, run, garden, etc). Participants will take to the streets, trails, safe spaces or in their homes and log activity on a virtual platform to show their progress. I’m partnering up with Walk Pittsburgh this year to get our city excited about staying active as we head into winter, and I know Highland Park is definitely one of the most active neighborhoods! You can join my group #pghwalks here <https://walkwithadoc.racery.com/r/kilimanjaro/?refcode=DoctorG-56221#racers…> and register for the challenge. I would love to see a big showing from our neighborhood and encourage you to share with people from all across the globe, since its an international event.

New Massage Therapist in Town!
by Natalie 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Hi neighbors! I wanted to tell you about a new massage therapist that is at the Nuin Center on Bryant Street. She is offering massage in a COVID friendly, safe environment. She specializes in tailoring your massage to what your body needs at that moment in time. Its not your run-of-the-mill, big box massage experience. Anyway, wanted to introduce the neighborhood to a new business owner :) Call Amma at 412 610 0024 to book a visit. Enjoy! -Natalie Natalie Gentile, MD Gentile Family Direct Primary Care, LLC 5655 Bryant Street Suite 108 Pittsburgh, PA 15206 Scheduling: https://gentilefamilydpc.as.me/ <https://gentilefamilydpc.as.me/> Website: www.gentilefamilydpc.com <http://www.gentilefamilydpc.com/> Facebook: @gentilefamilydpc Instagram: @gentilefamilydpc Twitter: @NGentileMD Text/call: 412-219-4613 Fax: 412-329-6573 Review Dr. Gentile and the practice!

city contact re: blue bins?
by nancy gohring 09 Nov '20

09 Nov '20

Just wondering if anyone happens to know contact information (preferably email but I'd take phone) for blue bin related feedback? I think it's great the city has distributed these bins but they're pretty small and I'd like to encourage the city to allow people to use supplemental bins or bags if needed. The paperwork that came with our bin said that they won't pick up anything that's not in the bin except for cardboard. Seems silly -- I have a bin that I've been using for the past two years, I'd like to use it if I have more than will fit in the new bin. I did a bunch of digging around online but haven't found any contact info. Thanks!
