Missing Dog in Westcreek

elainepozos — Tue, 12 Apr 2011 22:05:17 +0000

Hello,

Our dog Chester went missing yesterday (Monday, April 11th), and we are hoping you can post his picture and our contact info on the neighborhood website.

Chester is a small, black, daschund mix – he looks more like a mini black lab with skinny legs though. He was wearing a red antibark collar without any tags when he got out of the yard. He’s micro-chipped.

Please call 512-899-2403 (home) or 512-589-8023 (cell) if you’ve seen him. We really miss him.

Thanks,

Patty and Mark Webster

Neighbors Help Needed for Lost Jacket

elainepozos — Sat, 22 Jan 2011 14:34:16 +0000

From Westcreek neighbor Marily Cary:

My husband has lost his black nylon REI jacket with gloves in the inside pockets. He believes he may have dropped it early this morning in the driveway or on the street on his way to the car. It could very easily have been picked up by someone walking to school or the store or gym, not knowing who it belonged to.

If anyone has found his jacket, he would greatly appreciate having it returned…….since it’s so cold and he works outside. Just give us a call and we’ll be glad to pick it up.

Thank you!

Neighborhood Magazine Swap

elainepozos — Thu, 20 Jan 2011 21:58:34 +0000

Almost two years ago a few Westcreek residents started a magazine swap. Nothing formal or scheduled, when you’re ready to pass on the periodicals you take them to someone who hasn’t marked they’ve seen them yet. Since the magazine swap’s inception more people have moved into the neighborhood or those who might not have been interested before are now. Thinking perhaps others might want to join the exchange it’s time to open up the loop again.

If you’d like to be a part of the WNA Magazine Swap you can contact Christie Gaderson or Elaine Pozos to get on the rotation.
