Attached is a updated class schedule. There are no changes for those of you who have already registered for fall classes. However, I did have to switch several classes around to accommodate private parties which seem to be very popular. I do not intend to make any more changes ....it's a pain. So, if you are contemplating a private function for sometime in the fall please contact me soon as there are not a lot of available slots due to a heavy class load for fall. Dates available for private parties: (Sept. only has 1 date left and the others will fill up quickly) There are a lot of Sundays as I do not schedule classes on the Sundays that the Steelers play. 9/26 Sunday afternoon or evening _____________________________ 10/2 Saturday evening 10/3 Sunday afternoon or evening 10/4 Monday day or evening 10/8 Friday evening 10/17 Sunday afternoon or evening 10/20 Wednesday day or evening 10/24 Sunday afternoon or evening 10/29 Friday evening _____________________________ 11/1 Monday day or evening 11/8 Monday day or evening 11/12 Friday evening 11/14 Sunday day or evening 11/19 Friday evening 11/21 Sunday afternoon or evening 11/27 Saturday night (Thanksgiving weekend) _____________________________ 12/3 Friday evening 12/5 Sunday afternoon or evening 12/10 Friday evening 12/1 Saturday evening 12/12 Sunday afternoon 12/17 Friday evening various dates available through the end of December and then nothing available until after 1/15 Sorry for the inconvenience, Dorothy

All, I need to have a mechanic take a look at the my 2002 Nissan Xterra's AC. It's not blowing cold air, so it most likely only needs a recharge, but I wondered if any of you have had this procedure performed recently or could point me in the right direction? Regards, Chris

[Highland Park] Compost bin is spoken for
by C.Heather Kropf 06 Aug '10

Thanks for all the inquiries on the bin. There are many happy earthworms, by all accounts, 'cause apparently the whole neighborhood wants a bin in their backyard! Maybe the city should consider bin donations or something.... Anyhow, it's been spoken for. Thanks again, Heather

[Highland Park] Reminder: Oak Wilt in Highland Park Session on Saturday!
by caitlin 06 Aug '10

06 Aug '10

Hi all, Oak wilt is beginning to have an affect on our urban forest, as 2 large stands of trees have been removed from Frick and Highland Parks. You may have noticed the removal in Frick--2 acres were removed at the end of Kensington and Reynolds. Once trees are infected, they need to be removed to keep the fungus from spreading. Anyway we are offering a free session about it on Saturday in Highland Park... come on down with your coffee and learn how the fungus is affecting our area and how it can be prevented and treated. *Oak Wilt in Pittsburgh: A Special Education Session* Oak Wilt is a fast-spreading fungus that is affecting oak trees in the Pittsburgh region. Once the fungus is discovered in a population of trees, they must be removed. A 2-acre stand of trees were removed from Frick Park this spring, and another large area of trees that are infected will be removed in Highland Park in late July/early August. What is Oak Wilt and what are treatment options? Will it affect trees in your neighborhood? Join us for a special session with the Department of Forestry, Friends of the Pittsburgh Urban Forest, and Steve Miller from Bartlett Tree Experts in Highland Park. See the area where trees were recently removed, and learn more about this aggressive fungus, how to prevent it, and how it is treated. A Question & Answer session is included. *Saturday August 7th 9am-11am Pool Grove Shelter Highland Park* RSVP: Caitlin(a)Pittsburghforest.org or call 412-362-6360... or just show up by 9! Please wear close-toed shoes and dress appropriately for walking outside. This session is for adults only--please do not bring children under the age of 15. Learn more about Oak Wilt in this article from the Post-Gazette: http://www.post-gazette.com/pg/10154/1062753-455.stm -- "Time is how the trees grow. I will fall asleep for a thousand years and a mighty spruce will have raised me high, high into the sky."

[Highland Park] SEARCHING FOR APT OR HOUSE
by maraphotography＠aol.com 05 Aug '10

Hi. I'm a professional photographer currently living in Friendship. My partner, is a professional designer/artist and we are very interested in living in Highland Park. I've been at the same place of residence for 11 years and even though there's craigslist, I have to admit that the moving scene is quite frustrating! What we are looking for is a 2+ bedroom with central air and hardwood floors in a decent neighborhood. We have the most well behaved white lab you will ever meet. She has been in my studio for 2 years and has never had an accident. Because of her, we'd also love a place with a little yard. We are good tenants and will respect your property. If anyone knows of any places in Highland Park, please contact me at maraphotography(a)aol.com or call 412 853 7950. Thanks so much, Mara Rago
