Hi neighbors, the 2025 Halloween treat map is live! Add your house by submitting the Google form and the treat map will update within a day.
Also a reminder to sign up if you could help. We have some takers on the potluck/official candy station but could use more neighborhood-hands for the clean up after all the children on sugar high head home!
We’re inviting you to join us for a Sunnyside First: the Sunnyside Garden and Stairway Walk! This is a perfect chance to get some fresh air, meet your neighbors, and appreciate the unique charm of Sunnyside.
This special walking tour will be led by Amy O’Hair of the Sunnyside History Project. She’ll share fascinating stories and insights into the history of our neighborhood, bringing the local landscape to life!
You’ll get to see the stunning results of the DSP’s hard work—the vibrant, newly completed Painted Stairway on the Upper Detroit Steps. It’s a true neighborhood masterpiece and a testament to community spirit!
We encourage everyone to come out and celebrate this exciting month with us. To ensure we have a headcount, please RSVP to hold your spot!
We encourage you to share the flyer with friends, family, and neighbors so everyone knows about this fun event!
The Halloween Potluck and Trick-or-treating on Slow Hearst is returning on Friday 10/31! Slow Hearst organizers are obtaining street closure permits between Congo and Edna to ensure the safety of all trick-or-treaters this year.
We also need some help with set up, potluck table management, and clean up between 3 and 7pm. Please sign up for a spot if you can: it will make you super popular with all the little treat seekers in the neighborhood!

Here’s a new, free resource to help our community stay prepared for earthquakes and tsunamis. It’s called SafeHome, a civic tech initiative that helps San Francisco residents understand and prepare for earthquake and tsunami risks.
SafeHome is a user-friendly online tool that provides clear risk assessments and actionable preparedness tips. With just an address lookup, you can get a personalized safety profile for your home. This initiative was created through a collaboration between SF Civic Tech, the SF Department of Emergency Management, and the Berkeley Seismology Lab.
“SafeHome is designed to give peace of mind and empower residents with actionable safety information,” says Leela Solomon, Project Lead of SafeHome. This tool is a great way to be proactive about your safety and the safety of your loved ones. We encourage everyone in our neighborhood to take a few minutes to check out their home’s risk profile.
It’s easy and free to use. Visit the SafeHome website to check your address and get your personalized safety report:
