NEW Mid-Jordan TRAX Line! Safety Tips & GIVEAWAY! -CLOSED-

Winner

Did you see the article in the Salt Lake Tribune today on the NEW Mid-Jordan TRAX line?  They let us bloggers try it out.  It's really nice!  You can see my husband in the dark green shirt and my daughter holding her bag. :)  I was blocked :(  Anyway...

Just prior to opening on Wednesday, August 3, the public can ride the new Mid-Jordan and West Valley lines too. UTA is partnering with the Utah Food Bank to “let food be your fare” that day; those boarding at one of the new stations will be encouraged to bring a non-perishable food item.  Rides will begin at 9:00 a.m. and both lines will offer 15-minute service for the entire day in addition to other festivities at the stations.

The new TRAX line opens on August 7th.  Here are some safety rules for kids and parents to be aware of:

·         Always expect a train is traveling down the track
·         Be alert
·         Watch for trains in both directions
·         Cross the track on at designated crossings
·         Never, never walk on the track
·         Don’t play near the tracks
·         Observe and follow all safety markings and signals

UTA is giving away a Guest Pass for 4 Passengers!  It is valid at ALL forms of UTA Transit! (Ski, TRAX, FrontRunner, Express, etc..)  Good 8/1/11 - 8/31/11 Roundtrip

I would be lazy and ride the whole two stops to the library. Maybe even go downtown or check out the hub. If I'm really brave we might even take Frontrunner just to ride.
We want to take the FrontRunner to Ogden and go to the TreeHouse Museum. I hear it's great!

GIVEAWAY: ERGObaby Carrier! -CLOSED-

Winner I have carried my little boy in a baby carrier since he was born. I love the convenience of strapping him in and not worrying about the hassle of a bulky stroller. It's also a comfort to hold my little guy close and safe. When I had the chance to review the ERGObaby carrier, I was thrilled to try something that could extend my baby wearing days. My first test was a true one...Costco. I admit that I didn't really look at the directions when I put the carrier on in the parking lot. But I didn't need to!
