“Big Screen on the Green”
Portland Parks & Recreation’s presents  “Movie in the Park”  Thursday, August 14 in Brooklyn Park
“Spiderman 3”

If you are looking for free family activities this summer, enjoy the beauty of your own neighborhood.  “Big Screen on the Green” is a free parks program developed to bring community members and neighbors together for a great summer activity in their neighborhood parks.

“I love that we can offer something in the parks that is both free and an extremely positive use of the park,” said Jeff Milkes, South Services Manager. “The screen is 268 square feet and the projection and sound system are exceptional.”

The movie will begin at dusk (between 8 pm and 8:45 pm) and is weather permitting.  A rainout will be called by 5 pm and will be posted at the park. Prior to each movie, attendees will be greeted with various entertainment that begins at 6:30 pm.

    The kids already marked the calander for the ice cream social. I think that it is great that you have made this an annual event. It really is good for the kids to learn to get involved in their own communities, even if they aren’t aware if it yet. keep up the good work!
