Show Ik The Summit County Boo Friday, August 26, 1994 Editor's Note: No matter where we live in the United States today, the safety of our children is always a problem we will be faced with. The following program, offered free of charge, at the Factory Outlet in Park City September 10, is an important program we all as parents should seriously consider participating in. Letter to the Editor; No one really knows the full extent of our nation's missing children problem. In one study conducted on the issue, the U.S. Department of Justice found that there are over one million children reported missing each year. If your child were one of over one million children lost or abducted in the United States, would you have the tools to find your child? The fact is, missing children have a better chance of being found if parents maintain photos of them. The Factory Stores at Park City is hosting a KidCare Photo ID event as a part of a national effort to provide parents with with standard safety documents of their children in the event of an emergency. Utah parents can gain peace of mind Saturday, September 10, by obtaining free photographs of all of their children at the Kid Care Photo ID event at The Factory Stores from 11 am to 4 pm, sponsored by Carter's Childrenswear. Volunteers from Carters will be to help weigh and measure children and will guide families through the event. Summit County Sherrif s Department will be fingerprinting children, and McGruff the safety dog will be on site. Refreshments will be provided by Pepsi, and all children will receive free balloons. The National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC) and the Polaroid Corporation developed the KidCare photo ID to increase awareness about missing children and educate parents about the steps they can take to protect their children. The program is part of the International Council of Shopping Centers Get Centered" campaign, a nationwide effort demonstrating the commitment of shopping centers to their community. Everyone has pictures of their children, but most parents do not have a suitable photograph if their child becomes lost or missing. It is very important to have a recent, unobstructed head and shoulders photograph of the child. The photograph should be stored in a safe place with the vital statistics of the child at the time the standardized photo is taken. One in seven missing children featured in a NCMEC photo distribution program are found, so MCMEC authorities recommend that parents obtain KidCare Photo ID for their children. The Factory Stores and Carters are offering free KidCare Photo IDs as a public service to families in the area. Were pleased we can play such a vital role in helping keep children safe in our community. We certainly hope no one will ever need to use these documents, but parents can at least be assured that they have the information in a safe place at home should the need arise. on-si- te y , ' Ui Tell Me About - yvyqftfr .? ?yyyy -- ; j v " , It Pam's Place What Would You Have Said?

With the ribbon cut- ting ceremony held this past Monday Coalville and the surrounding communities can recycle their newsprint Hip, hip, hooray! Here are just a few tilings the community should be aware of when it comes to recycling. I know what youre thinking: I know how to recycle! The idea of recycling is not rocket science. But you should be aware of the certain rules that go along with recycling in Utah: 1. This bin is for newsprint only. Anything that comes with your newspaper is okay to put in this bin (except those samples of shampoo we sometimes get). That means that coupons and other advertisements can be recycled. This means that catalogs and magazines do not belong in this bin. 2. Do not put your garbage in this bin. The havoc reeked when someone throws in their garbage is immeasurable. It makes the entire load undesirable for the end buyer. They may even end up landfillirig it if there is an excess of waste, whether it's household or haz- 4. If your newspaper is oily, muddy or wet, do not throw it in the collection bin. Be sure to thank the Green Team, of North Summit Middle i School, the local Girl Scouts, and the county commissioners. The outcome of the combined effort between these three groups brought you this bin. The success of this recycling effort will be a community responsi-- , bility. Although the care of this bin does not fall unto Park City Recycling, I will be happy to an-- ; swer any questions you may have , You can take pride in knowing that your community is saving trees, landfill space, and producing less i pollution by recycling.
