Rear-Facing Toddler Info
Yeah, we know your little one hates to not looking forward in the car.  We also know that you hate not being able to see exactly what your child is doing in your rearview mirror.  But, for their own safety, delay this switch until they are two: http://aapnews.aappublications.org/cgi/content/full/30/4/12-a

Adjustable Swim Diaper
This is a great eco-friendly option and savings in your pocket as well!  And important because a new state law requires your non-potty-trained youngsters to wear a swim diaper (not the disposable variety).  A reusable swim diaper that washes up without a problem:  http://www.onestepahead.com/catalog/product.jsp?productId=535743&orderType=E&cm_ven=cheetah&cm_cat=2&cm_pla=042009&cm_ite=item

Challenge to Reduce Disposable Bags
The Reusable Bag Challenge is underway!  Through September 1, 2009, twenty-six mountain towns are competing in the 2009 Colorado Association of Ski Towns (CAST) Reusable Bag Challenge.  The goal is to see which town can minimize the use of disposable bags the most.  The winning town will receive a $5,000 grant from Alpine Bank to install a solar panel system at a public school.   Let's show them what Park City can do!  In the month of March, over 6,000 reusable bags were used at The Park City Market alone!  Each time you shop at Fairweather Natural Foods, The Park City Market, Whole Foods, Albertson's Park Avenue, Albertson's Jeremy Ranch, or Smith's be sure to bring your reusable bags.  We're off to a great start!

We think this referral is pretty cool--it is a referral from one of our subscribers who is in no way affiliated with the company she is writing in about.  We like that the guy comes to your home so that you don't have to deal with juggling schedules, etc:  I have a referral that I think all your Park City readers would like to know about.Ace Detailing.  The owner, Ryan Turner details cars and does an AMAZING job!!!!  I've used him twice now and he really gets the job done right.  He comes to your home and details your car right in your very own driveway.  My car looks brand new every time I have him detail it.  The best money I spend on my car.  For more details:  http://www.acedetailing.com/index.html
