[Highland Park] For Sale - Advantage Heartworm and Flea Treatment for Dogs
by Rob Nichols 02 Jun '10

02 Jun '10

Hello Neighbors, I have a 6 month supply of Advantage Multi for Dogs (20-55 lbs). It's a topical solution that works for both heartworm prevention and as a flea repellent/killer (does not work for ticks). I don't need it anymore. It retails for about $80 for a 6 month supply, but I'll take $40 for it. Just don't want it to go to waste and want someone with a dog to be able to use it. Let me know if you're interested. Cheers, Rob N. Saint Clair Street

[Highland Park] Free sink, medicine cabinet, and light fixture
by Carol Nichols 01 Jun '10

01 Jun '10

Hi fellow HPers, I have three things I'd really like to get rid of-- free, you haul. If you'd like any of these, let me know when you can pick them up and I will send you my address. If anything isn't claimed by Saturday, they're going out by the street during the yard sale with FREE signs on them. The items are: - Sink and cabinet. White sink, light brown cabinets (not as dark as it looks in this picture, see the picture of the medicine cabinet for a more accurate color). I have the hardware for the two drawers to match the doors, it's just not attached. Measures 37" w x 32" h x 18 3/4" d [image: sink.jpg] - Medicine cabinet Same color as the sink cabinets. 3 mirrored panels. 2 adjustable shelves inside. Measures 34 3/4" w x 28 1/2" h x 4 1/2" d [image: medicine-cabinet.jpg] - Ceiling light fixture I personally think this is the ugliest light fixture I've ever seen. A friend described it as looking like it belonged in a frat house. Please take this off my hands-- would be great for a "Pillow Talk"-esque decorating prank. Has 4 globes coming off of 4 spokes of black metal and between them are 4 spokes of brown wood that is not quite as dark as it looks in the picture. Measures about 21" square. [image: ceiling-light-fixture.jpg] Thanks so much! -Carol

[Highland Park] Fwd: Counselors needed for muscular dystrophy camp!
by Ruth E Hendricks 01 Jun '10

01 Jun '10

Thought someone in the neighborhood might know of some possible volunteers. Thanks Ruth Hendricks ---------- Forwarded message ---------- From: Leah Pileggi <leahp1(a)gmail.com> Date: Tue, Jun 1, 2010 at 5:37 PM Subject: Counselors needed for muscular dystrophy camp! To: Leah Pileggi <leahp1(a)gmail.com> Hi, I'm reaching out to everybody to get the word out that the Muscular Dystrophy Association summer camp is in desperate need of counselors for this year's summer camp.They especially need high school or college-aged boys who are interested in helping kids. (This would cover service hours for high school boys.) The camp runs from August 1-7 at Camp Kon-O-Kwee. It would be a week of no pay and no sleep, but it's the one week a year of freedom for kids with muscular dystrophy. Each counselor cares for one camper 24/7 catering to their needs and requests. "Camp's about the campers." These kids look forward to it all year. Right now they are 10 counselors short meaning that 10 potential campers might not get to go to camp. If you know anybody who might be willing to volunteer their time for that week, please let me know. Many thanks, Leah -- www.leahpileggi.com -- Ruth E Hendricks rutheh.wordpress.com www.ruthiehendricks.com
