Hi Neighbors, Peter, Xander (2 years old) and I just moved into the neighborhood this summer and are loving it. We wanted to offer a Highland Park neighbors discount to our newest Attack Theatre show "Site/Re-site" in the Strip District. As the kick-off to our 15th Anniversary season, this performance event features Attack Theatre¹s signature highly charged theatrical dance combined with live music from four different bands. Plus there is a hilarious ³Quizzinator² who will test your trivia skills (there is a prize!) between acts. We have free drinks after the show so I hope you¹ll stick around to say hello. For a $3 discount call ProArts Tickets 412.394.3352 and say ³Highland Park² or you can purchase at the door. But the seats are limited so you might want to purchase in advance.

Best, Michele de la Reza, Peter Kope and Xander michele(a)attacktheatre.com Featured Music: September 16: Daryl Fleming & The Public Domain September 17 and 18: Deoro (The fabulous NYC based Attack Theatre band) September 22 and 23: Chatham Baroque September 24 and 25: Ben Hardt and the Symphony Ticket Info: ProArtsTickets: www.proartstickets.org or 412.394.3353 All shows (except September 18) - $20 in advance/$25 at the door/$15 students, seniors, teachers September 18 ONLY - $35 Performance (all seats), includes Deoro¹s Kingston Morning CD release after-party

[Highland Park] free bird bath
by Catherine Batcho 17 Sep '10

Hi - I have a bird bath for anyone interested for free. It's in good condition, and pretty heavy duty. The base comes free from the top so it's not too difficult to transport - just a bit heavy. If you are interested I will give you the address in Morningside to come by and pick up - it's on the porch. I can also send a picture if you need one. Thanks, Catherine -- www.cutandsewstudio.com

16 Sep '10

Neighbors, This is just a brief note to remind you that my Cub Scout Pack, Pack 274, will be having an informational meeting on Monday, September 20th at 6:45pm at Liberty School in Shadyside. Scouting is a great activity that builds confidence in boys and nurtures their relationship with the adults who participate with them. We are recruiting boys aged 7-10 in grades 1-5 and their parents or other concerned adults for our pack. Our regular meetings take place Mondays from 6:45pm to 8pm at Liberty School and at the First United Methodist Church at Aiken and Centre Avenues. If that time and day do not work for you, please do look for another pack for your son at https://beascout.scouting.org/ <https://beascout.scouting.org/>Thank you, -- Heather Conrad, Heths Avenue "Opportunity is missed by most people because it is dressed in overalls and it looks like work."

Dear Highland Parkers, Thanks for supporting Three Rivers Film Festival so often and so well in the past. This year's festival is ramping up, and will run Nov 5-20, 2010. We are once again looking for volunteers to work at the hospitality / will-call tables, during the film festival, in the lobbies of the Harris Theater, Melwood Screening Room, and Regent Square Theater. Each two-hour shift for which you volunteer gets you a ticket for a future show, plus a warm feeling inside. Interested parties should send your contact information to margaret(a)pghfilmmakers.org Thanks! Yours, Rich Engel Director of Marketing and Public Relations Pittsburgh Filmmakers http://pghfilmmakers.org 412-681-5449 x204
