COMMUNITY CLASSIFIEDS
THE BEE's "want ads" are called "Community Classifieds".
An important innovation is that classified ads placed in THE BEE may also be available at the special Community Classifieds website, at the HotLink below!
In addition, Community Classifieds now offer the additional service of in-column photographs of vehicles and homes for sale. The photos can not only appear in THE BEE, but on the website as well.
Community Classifieds appear each month in THE BEE, and can also reach up to a half million additional readers by being published in any combination of the 24 other newspapers in the "Community Newspapers" group of Carpenter Media, including the weekly Clackamas Review, Oregon City News, Lake Oswego Review, and West Linn Tidings; the monthly Sherwood Gazette, and Southwest Community Connection; the weekly Gresham Outlook and Portland Tribune; and the other newspapers in the group.

Volvo-only car repair specialist opens beside Brooklyn Park
By RITA A. LEONARD
For THE BEE
“TVG Motors”, which specializes in Volvo car repair and maintenance, has opened in the former Majhor Murray location in the Brooklyn neighborhood, at 3411 S.E. Milwaukie Avenue – on the south side of Brooklyn Park.
Curtiss Potter and his son, Dylan, are the owners, and they specialize in Volvo repairs –“everything except body work”. “We’re a family-owned business, established in 1985,” remarked Curtiss. You may have run across them before, in Southeast Portland.
“We started at S.E. 6th and Clay, then moved to S.E. 12th and Belmont Street, and after that to S.E. 60th and Foster Road. Finally now we’re settled in Brooklyn, where we really like the neighborhood – one which we want to be a part of.”
TVG Motors is open Tuesdays through Thursdays from 8 until 6, and Fridays 8 till 5. Closed weekends and Mondays. The telephone number is 503/239-0122.

Woodstock business association launches “fourth Wednesday Mixers”: The Woodstock Community Business Association (WCBA), the city-designated business association for both the Woodstock and the Brentwood-Darlington neighborhoods, has initiated a “Monthly Mixer” for businesspeople on the fourth Wednesday of each month. In May, it will take place on May 28th at Toast Restaurant at 5222 S.E. 52nd Avenue, starting at 5 p.m.
Assn. of Home Businesses pleased with “Business Breakfast”: Instead of its usual monthly meeting on the third Thursday evening of the month at SMILE Station in Sellwood, in April, the AHB tried a “Business Breakfast” of business-pertinent conversation at Beez Holgate Station café, at 9 a.m. on that date instead. It proved successful, so another “Business Breakfast” is slated for Thursday morning, May 15th, at 9 a.m. It’s open to all, but seating is limited; the food is great and inexpensive. “Buy your own breakfast”, but no meeting fee is charged. Beez Holgate Station is at Holgate and 27th, on the east side of Matthews’ Memory Lane Motors.
