Greetings!
Welcome to Park City Jane's List! It's the free, daily email newsletter we've designed with you in mind: by moms, for moms!
"It doesn't matter who my father was; it matters who I remember he was" (Anne Sexton). This Sunday is Father's Day. If you have not already done so, remember to do something nice for the special guy ('guys' if you include your father and grandfather) in your life! They need to feel appreciated, too! There are lots of fun events this weekend to take advantage of. Enjoy!
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.

Please contact Jill: (435) 640-8733 if you, or anyone you know might be interested in bringing home one of these kittens. I am hoping to find loving homes for all four kittens, so that none of them will end up at the shelter. a picture of these adorable kittens is available if you email a request to zebrastripe757@yahoo.com, 3 of the four are pictured, the fourth one is all black and a bit camera shy!

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.
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! 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 or subscriber list: that would be lame.
