Lead Safe Louisville

For Schnitzelburg's March general meeting, Barbara E. Motley explained the Lead Safe Louisville Project, a program that aims to eliminate lead hazards in Louisville area homes. The initiative offers free home inspections and education on how to free your home of lead-based paint. To learn more, visit Lead Safe Louisville's page on the Louisvile metro government website.

Schnitzelburg March Newsletter

The March edition of the Schnitzelburg Area Community Council Newsletter is out now!

Among the important dates to note are the Monday, March 23, 7 p.m. General Meeting at St. Elizabeth's Cafeteria and the Saturday, March 28 neighborhood cleanup day with Brightside. I can't get the newsletter itself to link, but if you visit the Schnitzelburg LINC page and look under Community Pages, you can find it there!

Sunday Night Naked Lady Party at the Hara Center

It's not a scandalous as it sounds. This is a great opportunity for you neighborhood ladies to bring your gently used clothing for swapping. The party starts at 7 p.m., and a $5 suggested donation goes to support the Center's efforts to build community in Schnitzelburg. The Hara Center is located at the corner of Ash and Hickory streets. Visit http://www.theharacenter.net/ for more information.

Louisville Hot Bytes Community Visits Flabby's

Forum members of LouisvilleHotBytes.com visited Flabby's on March 7 and enjoyed the famous fried chicken, as well as other specialties like oyster cocktails and shooters, rolled oysters, fried chicken livers and pretzel sticks. The group of culinary connoisseurs gave the Schnitzelburg institution a big thumbs up!

Thanks to Marsha Lynch of Cafe Lou Lou for the great photo!

Spring Fever

Spotted in a yard on Eastern Parkway near Goss:

The promise of spring is exciting! As the weather warms, it's even more fun to get out and enjoy the neighborhood. Be sure and mark your calendar for the 27th Annual Schnitzelburg Walk on Saturday, April 25!

Potluckin' in G-town

The German-Paristown Neighborhood Association has been hosting potlucks for the last several months and they've become quite popular! Folks bring everything from traditional yummie casseroles and fried chicken to tofu curry and home made salsa. So its veggie friendly too!
The next one is March 16th and everyone is welcome! 7pm at the Germantown Neighborhood Center, 1094 E. Kentucky St.

Jockamo's is back!

Oh, how we missed your pepperoni breadsticks, hoagies and pizza!

St Elizabeth's Delivers a Delicious Fish Fry!

You have until April 3 to try the tasty food at the St. Elizabeth's Fish Fry!

This is my fish dinner, a feast priced at a bargain $6.50 for the fish, two sides and dessert. I chose mac and cheese, green beans and coconut pie, but hush puppies, onion rings, baked apples and fries also looked appealing.

Get there early to get a good seat! 4:30-7 p.m. every Friday!

Jockamo's soon to reopen?

If you were sad like I was when Jockamo's closed, you will be happy to hear that there is a glimmer of hope. I noticed on the door of the restaurant today that the previous "on vacation" sign has been traded out for a "opening soon" sign. I hope they're not just pulling my leg!

Now if someone would just open a super awesome restaurant in the old Germantown Cafe location, Goss Avenue would be swinging again!

Salsa Lessons at Hara Center Begin Monday!

Beginning Salsa Rueda 7-7:55pm & Salsa Basics 8:05-9:00pm-two 8 week classes starting Mon. Mar. 2 with Teresa Balistreri.
