Baby/Child Vendors?
Do you have a child or baby-related product or store? If so and you would like to showcase your goods during our Babysitter Bash, please send an email to leslie@parkcityjane.com. I know the timing is kind of tight, but we have a few open tables for those wishing to do so. Would love to help support our local moms by allowing them this free opportunity!

Women-Only Bike Rides
The skilled women of White Pine Touring's Team, Team Sugar, are happy to teach you to overcome the challenges of shifting, switchbacks and technical descents. Learn new bike trails and meet new friends! Every Tuesday night in June, July and August! 6:00 p.m. to 8 p.m. The group leaves from White Pine's store on Bonanza--please arrive by 5:30. Best of all, the cost is nothing more than a potential skinned knee!

Gather together in the children's area at the Barnes and Noble in Sugarhouse every Tuesday at 11:00. You can browse for books nearby while your child is entertained. For details, www.barnesandnoble.com

Story Time At Pottery Barn Kids
There are a couple of reasons we love this story time: 1) it gives you a chance to shop 2) your child receives a special 'membership card' for attending (remember, it's the little things that matter when you're young!) and 3) they receive a special gift after attending 5 times! Every Tuesday from 11 a.m. to 11:30 a.m. For store locations and more details, visit http://www.potterybarnkids.com/cust/bookclub/content.cfm

One of our readers highly recommends Claudia Foltz who is available for childcare (full time, part time, or to cover those errands that we all have to run!), and housekeeping (regular schedule or single sessions). She worked as a housekeeper for Deer Valley this past winter and previously worked as a nanny and babysitter in South America. She is bi-lingual and very-very-very hard working. She is hoping to join the US Navy in the next few years and then use her GI Bill to attend college. Claudia can be reached at (435) 901-2253.
