Workshops will also be held in July and September as we move through the process. At each workshop we will demonstrate how feedback from the Community Conversation has been considered as decisions are made. <http://www.carnegielibrary.org/about/future/> ___________________________________________________________ Please see the website for more information: http://www.carnegielibrary.org/about/future/ Thanks!

[Highland Park] Paint and recycled supplies needed please!!
by Alyssa Herzog 03 May '10

03 May '10

Hello neighbors, I'm currently serving in Literacy*AmeriCorps, and we, along with numerous other Corps in the city of Pittsburgh, are planning a large scale service project event in Wilkinsburg this Saturday, May 8, to kick of National AmeriCorps Week. We are going to be doing urban gardening and beautification, and we need your assistance with supplies! We are looking for the following supplies to be donated: 1. EXTERIOR paint and spray paint. This will be used on the recycled tires we're using for tire gardens. 2. Acrylic paint for arts and crafts. We're painting plant pots with youth who attend the event. 3. Used CDs. These will also be broken up and used for a mosaic effect on the pots. 4. Flower and ground cover seeds (no edibles please). These will be planted in the tire gardens. 5. Hosta plants--we have a few houses that we're cleaning out the front yards of that have huge trees in them. We'd love to be able to plant some shade loving plants below them to pretty it up a bit. I'd be more than willing to come dig them out :-) If you'd be able to help us out with any of these supplies, we'd really appreciate it! I'd be willing to come pick up the supplies or you could drop them on my porch. Please email me at alyherzog(a)hotmail.com if you can help us out! Many thanks, Alyssa Herzog Melby _________________________________________________________________ The New Busy think 9 to 5 is a cute idea.

[Highland Park] The Bryant Street Market is a Great Addition to Our Neighborhood!
by Nancy Levine-Arnold 03 May '10

03 May '10

Dear Neighbors, I made several trips to the new Bryant street market this weekend. The Gelato is divine. The organic strawberries were only $3 a quart and were the best strawberries I have ever purchased. The produce is organic, reasonably priced and looks lovely. There is delicious fresh local cheese and all of the other usual grocery staples that the Walnut Market sold. Check-it-out, Nancy Arnold Would you like to encourage the restaurants you eat at to care about the environment? Leave them an encouraging message when you leave a tip: www.dinegreen.com/downloads/2008Suggestioncard.pdf
