Today's Sponsor: 
Park City Moms Group

Park City Moms is a social group with members residing in and around Park City, Utah. Our purpose is to connect mothers and their families for fun activities and get-togethers. Being in our group is a great way to meet women with interests and challenges similar to your own.

Raising children can be stressful and exhausting. By joining together we can overcome the isolation and frustration that often accompanies parenthood. Developing a network of other mothers going through the same life experiences enables us to share our feelings and ideas in hope of gaining more confidence and a better understanding of our roles as mothers.

Our club offers:
Support and help for new moms
Playgroups for Infants through Preschoolers
Social Events for Parents
Bi-monthly Newsletter
Seasonal and Annual events
Discounts at local businesses with member card

Your membership and participation in the moms' group is very important. We value your contributions and ideas since our club is only as good as our members make it. We encourage you to get involved, make new friends and have fun doing it.

SAHM Monday Meetup
The fun mommies of this PC Moms Group subgroup have once again resumed their super-popular summer agenda.  The fun kicks off at Park City Bread & Bagel in Quarry Village at 10:00 am followed by playtime for the kids at Pinebrook Park at 11:00ish.  No need to come to the entire thing--some people come for either part, some come for all.  So much fun to have a big playdate with kids of all ages and meet their interesting mommies!  For more information, please email Jill at jel727@gmail.com or visit www.sahm.meetup.com/2626

Field Tester Needed
Every once in a while, someone sends us their products to try out in hopes that we will write an editorial about it on Jane's List.  To this end, Park City Jane's List is in need of a few moms with babies (infant to 9 months only!) to field test items when we receive them.  If you would be interested in being a field tester for this age group, please send an email to leslie@parkcityjane.com.

Mosquito Prevention
Did you know that just one cup of standing water can breed 200 mosquitoes a week? With the unusually wet weather there could be more mosquitoes than ever.

Also, if you know of any area that has standing water for more than three days, please give them a call. Mosquito Abatement can be reached at (435) 336-2088 and will respond to all calls.

Sponsor An Issue:  Would you like to help support Park City Jane's List and advertise your business at the same time?  Then imagine your business ad right here, seen by 500 moms in Park City (and growing daily).  We only run one sponsorship a day at the top of each daily newsletter.  We are also currently running a sponsorship special:  $50 for one daily sponsorship.  $45/day if you purchase 3 or more.  Current Park City Moms Group members receive an additional discount.  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).

And, no, we would never sell our subscriber list to anyone--that would be lame.
