but not necessarily limited to, her health, welfare, education, religious training and upbringing shall be

following a harmonious policy in the Child's best interest. Neither party shall impair the other party's
rights to shared legal custody of the Child. Neither party shall attempt to alienate the affections of the
Child from the other party. Each party shall notify the other of any activity or circumstance
concerning the Child that could reasonably be expected to be of concern to the other. Day to day

accordance with 23 Pa.C.S.A. §5309, each party shall be entitled to complete and full information from

Virginia for the weekend from June 15 through June 17, 2007 to enable the Child to spend additional

the Child begins kindergarten.
3. The parties agree to reevaluate the custodial arrangements in light of the Child's needs
sufficiently in advance of the Child's enrollment in kindergarten as to ensure a smooth transition for
the Child if adjustments to the shared custodial schedule are necessary at that time.
4. This Order is entered pursuant to an agreement of the parties at a custody conciliation
conference. The parties may modify the provisions of this Order by mutual consent. In the absence of
