[412] School's out for summer! Now what ...

[412] School's out for summer! Now what ...: "[412] School's out for summer! Now what ...
My latest email blast should also be shared on the blog for those who are NOT on my list.




Hi All,

1. We host a 4th of July party every year -- and you are invited. Arrive around 7 pm. We provide lemon-aid. We'll play badminton in the park at the outset. Rauterkus family 4th of July party is an open house at 108 South 12th Street, Pittsburgh, PA 15203.

2. Olympicpedia is the new day camp I'm hosting, as part of a new 4-H chapter. We are meeting from 11 to 1 pm, Monday through Friday, starting June 16, ending July 31.

Check it out. Visit and get set for the arrival of the Olympics in August.

3. Sure, school is out but Schenley High School should reopen in September. I blog about this at http://Rauterkus.blogspot.com. It is much cheaper to fix the asbestos this summer (less than $5-million) and not go through all the extra costs associated with moving the students and faculty. A most interesting TV show has been playing on PCTV21. In case you missed it, hear the audio at

Saving Schenley by removing the asbestos is a better solution and far more affordable than the weirdness that Mark Roosevelt proposed -- cloaked in falsehoods. It isn't $76.2-million to fix Schenley like is stated in today's paper. His homework isn't done. His own reports say
he is about $72 million too high.

4. To speak at a public hearing about schools that has been called by the residents of the city for 6 pm, Tuesday, June 17 in city council chambers, 5th floor, City-County Building, Grant Street, call 412-255-2138.
