Group Restaurant Suggestions

Here are some Restaurants that group members recommended:

Picollo Forno in Lawrenceville - reasonably priced wood-fired pizzas and yummy pasta - BYOB

Hot Metal Grill in South Side Works - food is good but they give out coupons for free movies!

Aspinwall Grill - I (Anne Jane) have not been there but my neighbor's love it

Brugge Cafe - an East End gem

Group Knitting Event

From Teri: I am going to give a call to the owners of the new coffee shop in Point Breeze to see if they will let us use their upstairs studio for an afternoon – probably a Sunday if they are open. It’s really wonderful space that they use for art demos, etc. I’ll let you know what I find out. Everyone feel free to come, especially if you KNOW how to knit – I have a feeling that we will have more students than teachers!

For beginners who want to come, I understand that size 8 needles are good to start with, and as far as type of yarn – I have no idea. Also, my daughter Kate is coming and I recall one other mom this morning (Paula?) saying that her daughter would be into it also – so bring kids if you want as well. More details later….

February 5, 2006 Sunday Run

Tom will lead from Phipps on Sunday. He said that he will make sure thatthis weather sticks around until then too.

Those wanting to run to the run should meet at 6:30AM at the intersection of Wilkins and Beechwood. We don't want to miss this run again!

January 9, 2006 Sunday Run

Wendy will lead from the usual start of her run at the big main intersection in Schenley Park (at the Blvd of the Allies and Bartlett Street), but depending on how light it is we may stay on the road past the skating rink to get started (instead of heading down the trail into the park). See you then.
