Greetings!
Welcome to Park City Jane's List! It's the free, daily, e-mail newsletter and web site we've designed with you in mind: by moms, for moms!
If you do not wish to receive these daily emails- please unsubscribe below... thanks!
We fund Jane's List (email delivery service, website hosting, paying
our local researchers, etc) out of our own pockets because we want to
keep Jane's List free to our subscribers. If you feel you have gained
something from Jane's List and want to say
"Thanks", your contribution (no matter how large or small) would be
greatly appreciated. We also hope to be able to add the 'archive
function' you are all requesting once we have the funds to do so. You
can use the PayPal button below to make a
contribution via credit card, e-check or PayPal.

Seeking Home For Family Dogs
Even if you can't take them, please pass this around! Cookie and Coco's "parents" are moving in less than 2 weeks and can not take their 2 beloved dogs with them. They are looking to have both dogs go to the same home since they were raised together, go everywhere together and pine without each other. The Lab Rescue has already said that they would probably separate them. Both dogs are in great health, have been spayed and have ID chips implanted, and are 3 years old.
Cookie is my mellow-yellow, and just loves her tummy rubbed. Coco is adorably funny and lives for her "ball." She also loves the water..... Cookie loves lots of attention. Both doggies are loyal and love to walk. They have been raised with my 3 kids running around all over the place, and have survived Sammy's constant hugging and love of 'dress-up', so they are fantastic family dogs. They are just adorable and it's heartbreaking to let them go. In a perfect world, I hope that we could find someone local so that we can still keep in touch and visit them. Thank you all from the bottom of my heart.kjmorris74@yahoo.com
Modeling Good Behavior Workshop
We want the best for our children and want them to be happy and to feel good about themselves. We judge ourselves by their successes and their failures. Many parents fail because they are inconsistent. They say things they do not mean, they lack patience and they react to the negative rather than the positive. Now there is help! Dr. F. Joyce Gerber, a retired Professor and Coordinator of Early Childhood Education at Housatonic Community College in Bridgeport, CT will be conducting a workshop, June 18 from 7-8:15 pm. Please call (435) 615-3947 to register and more information.

Sponsorships (i.e. Advertising on Jane's List): All businesses wishing to advertise themselves to our readers need to purchase a sponsorship in order to be in Jane's List (this includes private schools, daycares, camps, etc). This is for a variety of reasons: keeps our newsletter fun by keeping it from becoming one big advertisement (which is not fair to our subscribers), that our sponsorships are clearly promoted and highly visible but also clearly marked and, most importantly, it is how we fund our newsletter and keep it free to our subscribers. We only run one sponsorship a day at the top of each daily newsletter. If you want to promote your business, program, class, etc and are interested in becoming a daily sponsor, please send an email to leslie@parkcityjane.com ATTN: Sponsorship. We really appreciate your sponsorship support!
Editorial Policy: Jane's List items are selected by our editors based upon information you have sent us as well as 'field experience' conducted by our editors. We want to keep the legitimacy, integrity and fun of Jane's List intact so we'll never make a dime off your meal at a restaurant nor a penny from the sale of the latest toy we told you about. And we ask the same in return: all submissions about a product or business to Jane's List should follow the same guideline (that you not affiliated with the business). We want you to send us your information to include in our daily lists: available nanny/babysitter (or need for a babysitter/nanny), a fun place/event to take your children for fun (especially if free), a great place for mom's night out, fun crafts to do with your kids, that awesome new exercise class you have taken, your garage sale, items you wish to sell, great recipe, funny video, sentimental poem, great gift ideas, important safety information, etc. We also LOVE to receive announcements (birth, press coverage of a local mom or business, etc) and will always be happy to post them. You can submit your requests to us at kristy@parkcityjane.com ATTN: Jane's List Item. Please make sure that you give us plenty of advance notice (we require a week in advance to guarantee posting your information).
Note regarding products featured in our list: all of the products written about in Jane's List have been 'test-driven' by our editors, subscribers or friends and family who have NO affiliation with the product editorialized. If you have a product/book/restaurant, etc you would like our editors to consider writing about, please let us know. We are always happy to have you send us something for one of our reporters to 'field test' for review for potential inclusion in one of our letters.
You Spoke And We Listened: We will be coming out with special editions to serve local schools, daycares and camps based upon YOUR requests. These issues will be only one time per year (i.e. the 'Camp' issue will come out in May, the 'Daycare' issue in August and 'Preschool' issue TBA--we could use your input on this one). If this is something you would like to be included in, please shoot us an email labeled ATTN: Special Edition and we will send you more details as they become available.
And, no, we would never sell our subscriber list to anyone--that would be lame.
