New Content Coming Soon to Help You Find Deals, Plan Family Time and Prep for Weekend

Starting next week, Concord Patch will devote Wednesdays and Thursdays to news and info for moms and families and to information that will help all of our readers make weekend plans.

Along with our regular news content, on Wednesdays look for new features about bargains at local stores; a column that will answer parenting questions; a feature highlighting awesome kids in town; kid-free outing ideas for moms (and dads!) and a short calendar of upcoming family friendly things to do.

Thursdays will be all about the weekend: weekly restaurant profiles; a calendar of events; a roundup of open houses for real-estate buffs and some fun photo galleries to show you what's been going on around town.

We are looking for moms (and dads) who are willing to volunteer a little bit of time on our new Moms Council. The council will help us answer readers' questions and keep us (and you) better informed about local parenting issues. E-mail Editor Peggy Spear at Peggy.spear@patch.com if you're interested in participating. 

Readers are invited to submit their photo galleries or interesting videos. And we'd love to hear any other ideas you might have about these topics or anything else!
