Start cleaning your houses, basements, and garages of unwanted items and hard to recycle (non-curbside) recyclables so you can bring them to the annual Richmond Neighborhood Clean-up!

Did you know that the Richmond Cleanup is a win-win event for everyone involved? Not only do YOU get an affordable, centrally located location to get rid of unwanted items such as obsolete electronics or bulky block Styrofoam, but the Richmond Neighborhood also gets the opportunity to fundraise and support the neighborhood events you enjoy throughout the year!  Every car (or bike trailer!) that comes to the parking lot that day helps raise funds to support events such as Movies in the Park!

Don’t have any stuff to get rid of? Well you should still plan to drop by because back again this year are the ever-popular Plant Sale/Swap and U-Price it Sale!  The Plant Sale/Swap gets bigger each year and is a great opportunity to get affordable plants for your yard. The U-price is sale is an enormous neighborhood garage sale that overflows with usable household items that need a new home! Both are not to be missed!

VOLUNTEERS NEEDED. This event is only possible thanks to the fabulous support of our neighbors who give their time on Clean-up day to help divert people and stuff to their appropriate locations. We are always looking for enthusiastic folks who want to help out so please get in touch so we can add you to our list! (We’ll provide tasty food and beverages for your time!)

The details:

When: June 9,  2012    9:00 am – 1:00 pm

Where: Central Christian Church Parking Lot - 1844 SE Cesar Chavez Blvd, Portland

Items Collected: Bulky waste, metal, wood, non-curbside plastics, yard debris, styrofoam, computer monitors & accessories, televisions, small appliances, electronics, reusable household items, carpet pad, bicycles, & reusable remodeling materials.

For more information or to get on volunteer list: Email richmondcleanup@gmail.com or call Sabrina at 541-753-1027

ABSOLUTELY NO hazardous materials, paint, sod, or concrete

No curbside recyclables either please! (Take your cardboard, plastic plant pots, kittly litter buckets and paper out to the curb each week please!)

I have just come upon an opportunity to sell a shipment of Softcups acquired through a colleague in pharmaceutical distribution. Scientifically proven safer than tampons, you can wear 12-hour Softcups during sports, swimming, sleeping and intercourse. Anecdotally, Softcups have also reportedly been used by countless women as a fertility aid, although they are not tested or marketed for this purpose.

1 Box (14 cups) is $6.99
1 Case (18 boxes of 14/each) is $112.50

As you can see, buying in bulk reduces the price to $6.25/box. And there's NO shipping and handling in the Portland area. Bring your cash, pick them up in SE PDX and you're good to go!

In the interest of full disclosure, you can find them at drugstore.com or Wal-Mart for slightly less, but your purchase goes directly to support a local Mom rather than a corporation. All profits go DIRECTLY to my family.

Hello mamas!  I'm excited to share that "Babylove Childbirth Classes" will be a featured daily deal on www.mobba.comwithin the next two weeks!  The deal is 50% off all childbirth workshops for the next year when purchased through Mobba.com.  That's $30 per person...a steal!  So, if you're not already a member of Mobba.com, now's the time, especially if you or someone you know is expecting (or planning to) any time within the next year.  My workshops are one-stop shopping when it comes to preparing for childbirth.  The workshops are a one time, 4-5 hour session on a weekend day, and includes lots of coupons and resources from all around the Portland area.  Not only are the workshops informative (I'm a labor and delivery nurse) they are personal, small group sessions so that you will come away feeling connected and empowered when your baby's birthday arrives.  Please check out my website for more information!  Best, Dena Holstrom www.babyloveworkshop.com, deenzrn@yahoo.com
