The Marvelous moving to Cedar Park

July 2, 2012

On sale now. Soon this stuff will be moving to 4916 Baltimore Avenue.

 
After nine years near the Penn campus on 40th Street, The Marvelous, a music and musician supply store, is moving into the location formerly occupied by Wake Up Yoga (4916 Baltimore Ave.).

Milan Marvelous, the owner, said that they’re planning to open the doors on Baltimore Avenue on July 12. “We’re totally stoked, because the new space is simply luscious … We’re looking forward to our new neighbors – Dock St, Firehouse Bikes, Elena’s, Satellite Cafe, Vix, Mariposa, etc.,” said Milan.

This week, the store is throwing a big “moving away” sale (July 2 – July 7), with everything marked down up to 50% off. The store’s last day at 208 S. 40th St. will be Saturday July 7.

Lost black/orange/brown cat (50th and Baltimore)

July 1, 2012

On Friday June 29 this cat got out at the intersection of 50th and Baltimore. It is mostly black with hints of orange and brown running through her. Her predominant feature is that she has a split face. She looks like a two face cat, half her face being black and the other half being orange with hints of white.

If you’ve seen her, please call 267-315-7754 or email GaryAltmark@gmail.com.

A fountain letter to Parks and Rec

July 1, 2012

The Clark Park drinking fountain stands alone this weekend because it has no water. The letter below is an appeal to Parks and Rec to get it working.

 

Dear Department of Parks and Recreation,

So it has been seriously hot over the last couple of weeks. You already know this. We hear it is going to be just as hot for another week. Here’s the problem: We have a great drinking fountain in Clark Park that is right next to the basketball courts and playground. We would love to use it because, as you probably know, playing basketball when it is 95 degrees out makes you very thirsty. But the fountain doesn’t work. Could you please, please fix it?

Sincerely,

The Kids of Clark Park

(This letter represents views we heard expressed in Clark Park by kids young and old who want their fountain fixed.)
