July 2009 Letter from the publisher
Dear Parents,
I have had some pretty cool jobs in my life. For example I was a Nintendo game play counselor. My job was to learn how to play all of the Nintendo games so I could help people who couldn’t figure them out. During college I had a part time job as one of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (I hope you all get a chance to go see them at Club Sport on July 11th). As a TMNT I would make appearances at skating rinks and perform martial arts demonstrations, sign autographs and get free pizza. Notwithstanding all of my past jobs, nothing has been more rewarding than being the publisher of ParentsGuide of Las Vegas.
I appreciate the support and feedback I have received from so many parents in Las Vegas. The response to our website (www.ParentsGuideLV.com) has been incredÂible. We already have more than 2,800 parents on our e-newsletter list and more are signing up every day. Finally, I want to thank the PGLV advertisers. They make this possible every month.
Our July issue is all about sports. In our magazine, and on our website, we are building the most complete information source for Las Vegas parents. This is particularly true of Youth Sports which is the topic of this issue. Given the constraints of space, I know we have not been able to include every youth sports program and league. If you would like your youth sport program promoted in our online directory send us an e-mail and we will include you free of charge. Also be aware that beginning in August we will run a monthly calendar for youth sport sign ups. If you have a youth league that you would like to promote please e-mail the sign up information to editor@ParentsGuideLV.com.
Best regards,
Mark Sherwood, Publisher
