Submitted by Beth Ayer on Thu, 06/23/2011 - 4:14pm

This summer, kick back and enjoy family-friendly movies outside under the stars courtesy of Saint Anne's Neighborhood Association.

Saint Anne's is proud to host Family Movie Nights at Kennedy Park. There will be two Friday evening events, July 29th and August 12th from 6:00 - 10:00 p.m. (the films start at 8:15). On July 29th, they'll show How to Train Your Dragon, complete with refreshments.

The movie nights are not without cost, however. Saint Anne's hopes that local residents, businesses and our elected officials will sponsor Family Movie Nights with donations to Saint Anne's. With donated funds, Saint Anne's will rent projector equipment, secure a police detail, and pay for the park permit.
