Missing a Maroon Guess coat?

Hi, neighbors! I was walking today (Thrs) around noon and found a maroon Guess coat that looked like new in the park. I left it there in case someone came back for it. If you think it’s yours, let me know and I can provide location. Hope it finds its owner! Sarah

Prospective Obama student looking to talk to someone who is there
by Joy Guilleux 02 Jan '25

02 Jan '25

Hi neighbors, Our daughter is in 8th grade, looking at going to Obama for the IB program, and she doesn’t know anyone else applying. We thought maybe someone in HP has a student who goes to Obama, who might be willing to have a 15 minute phone call to give us your experience of the school, any extra curricular activities, and a huge bonus would be someone on the girls’ soccer team! We are out of the country, and have not had a chance to do a shadow day. Please let me know if this is something you’d be willing to do. Thanks so much, Joy Guilleux

by Megan Spak 02 Jan '25

02 Jan '25

Hello! Posting this for a friend; her child would like to join the Pgh Elite Aquatics team at Pitt, but they don’t have transportation to and from Oakland (starting in either Highland Park or Friendship) for the practices. If anyone reading this has a child on the team and would be open to helping them with transportation for the Monday through Thursday practices, my friend would be so grateful. Her contact info is shihojinno(a)gmail.com <mailto:shihojinno@gmail.com>. Thanks so much! Megan

Last call for neighborhood tree pick up fundraiser!
by Girl Scout Troop 52498 02 Jan '25

02 Jan '25

Thank you to the folks who have signed up to have their Christmas tree picked up and brought to the city’s tree drop off lots! We have a few more spots available, but need to know by tomorrow (Friday)if you still want to sign up. We will be collecting trees this Sunday, January 5. Here is the link to sign up if you live in Highland Park, Morningside, East Liberty or Larimer: https://forms.gle/NzUfE5SqLALy42qYA If you live in other city neighborhoods or would like to share information about the program with friends, this flyer has links to all of the troops doing the pickups: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1oGuyGAE8hKrLYWGyCjrIbGSZDzdjGU4bcbJfifl… If you can't make that January 5 date, please check with the city's webpage for details about drop off locations and dates: https://www.pittsburghpa.gov/Resident-Services/Trash-Recycling/Drop-Off-Inf… Once you sign up, and after we get closer to the pick up date, you will receive an email with more details. If you can’t get your tree to one of the lots, please consider tucking it into a corner of your yard, as a habitat for birds and insects, rather than putting it out for trash pick up. See this article for ways to re-use your tree without lugging it to a lot: https://www.countryliving.com/uk/homes-interiors/interiors/a25420891/what-t… <https://www.gardenersworld.com/plants/six-ways-to-recycle-your-christmas-tr…> Wishing you all a peaceful New Year!

Multiple city trees to be removed by Duquesne Light
by Laura Gordon 01 Jan '25

01 Jan '25

Hello neighbors, On Wednesday a Duquesne Light notice was hung on my Grafton St front door which appears to indicate that at least one of the city trees on our property is to be removed due to encroaching upon electrical lines. A neighbor received the same notice. We observed that our trees had been tagged with blue tape. I counted more than 10 trees on the "even" side of Grafton St that have blue tape applied. I've called and left messages daily with the named contact printed on the notice to try to get more information on the scope of the work. I've also contacted the Vegetation Management Department of Duquesne Light and am waiting for a call back. In the absence of complete information, this doesn't necessarily mean that 10+ city trees will be removed from Grafton St. But it doesn't mean that they won't either. This would have a sudden and drastic impact on our tree-lined street. One would think pruning could be an alternative. I wanted to get a note out to the neighborhood as we ourselves might not have seen the notice since we typically use a different door. Not sure if this is happening on other HP streets besides Grafton. Best regards, Laura

Plumber / light carpentry needed
by Ava DeMarco 01 Jan '25

01 Jan '25

Happy new year everyone, I'm looking for a plumber who can hook up a new washer and dryer. This also involves building a low wooden platform to put the appliances on and possibly moving a sink 1 or 2 inches. Any recommendations appreciated! thanks -- *Ava DeMarco* *CEO* *Little Earth Productions* *For Catalogs and flyers click here <http://flyers.littlearth.com/>* -- * Follow Us!* * * <https://www.facebook.com/Little-Earth-Productions-929324177095967/> <https://twitter.com/littleearthprod> <http://google.com/+littlearth> <https://www.pinterest.com/littleearth01/> --
