Post: Seeking Copy Editor
As I reported in a previous post, I have been working on a book for the last three years about my career as a patrol officer and narcotics, homicide, and corruption investigator in the D.C. police department. I knew a fair amount about the content and reached out for help by more talented writers. No less than five members of Restoration provided gratefully received assistance. I have finished the manuscript, and before sending it out to prospective publishers, I need the services of a good copy editor to correct any grammatical errors. If anyone knows of a person willing to offer that service (for pay of course), please let me know at my email address or Marla’s cell phone: (703) 470-9880. The manuscript is currently 190 pages and 94,000 words in length.
Thanks!

Post: Seeking Russian Language Opportunities
My cousin’s son is informally studying Russian and interested in taking his studies further. The family can’t afford to help him. He’s 18 and not in school. I was hoping someone in the Foreign Service or otherwise connected to professional opportunities in language could share opportunities with him or guide him, particularly scholarships or subsidized study opportunities. Contact me at gregpiper@gmail.com if you can help. Thanks!

Post: Bunk Beds Available
We have a great set of bunked beds that are ideal for a basement room or a room with a low ceiling. They have been lovingly used by 2 Hanke boys for a decade and they are still in good shape. Happy to send them to a new home. Pictures available upon request. Contact me at 571-521-9081 or by email.

Post: Guitar Needed
I am a counselor at Dorothy Hamm Middle School in our church neighborhood and am currently working with a lovely 6th grader who is interested in learning guitar. She is from a low-income family that cannot afford a guitar. Someone has graciously volunteered to give her free lessons but she is still lacking the instrument. Does anyone have a guitar that they are no longer using and would like to donate it to this sweet student? Let me know by email or phone at (703) 300-0844.

Post: Seeking Rental for 5 Women
Hello!
I am a member of Restoration and my 4 roommates and I (total of 5) are looking for a house to rent in the Arlington area!
Our landlord is moving back into his house we are currently renting, and we are looking to move into another place by the end of our lease, July 31st. Our budget is around ~$6,000/month, but is fairly flexible.
We would be grateful for any housing leads in the area! We are all mid/late 20s working professionals who would love to continue living together.
Thank you!

Post: Seeking Summer Nanny Position
Hello!
I am looking to work as a live-in nanny in for a family with young kids. I am experienced with ages 7 months–13 years, but especially elementary age. I can drive, tutor, clean, cook, and of course, play! I also speak Spanish, and am happy to help teach it. I love spending time with kids and making good summer memories.
I am just finishing up a gap year before heading to William & Mary in the fall. This spring, I worked as an intern at RILA, but I have spent the past month in Austin taking care of two families with four kids each. I would love to continue working with a family in NOVA the rest of the summer. I’d be happy to discuss my experience and other details further. If you or someone you know is in need of some extra help this summer, please reach out at bcbwarner@gmail.com or (737)-825-1677!
Thanks!

Post: Seeking Commanders vs. Browns tickets
I am looking for 2 or 3 tickets for the Commanders vs. Browns football game in October. If you have season tickets you are looking to sell or access to seats we can buy, please let me know.
