Movies Under The Stars returns to Campbell River Wed. August 24th 2011

Not to be confused with Sunset Cinema that we had in Campbell River about a month ago (with the movie Rango) “Movies Under The Stars” returns to Willow Point Park (the Sportsplex field) Wednesday, August 24th! Last year’s presentation was entertaining and educational… the education supplied by Comox Strathcona Waste Management and partners, and the entertainment on the big screen was Toy Story 3. This year, the “pre-show messaging and information about helping to build healthy communities through waste reduction initiatives and sustainability” returns, along with a CLASSIC movie from 1982. Did you see this on the big screen the year it came out? If you missed it at the theatre or at the drive-in… or still have the doll and want to relive the moment, make sure you round up the kids and the lawn chairs to see THIS:

E.T. will fly past the moon in Campbell River August 24th!

Henry Thomas demonstrates "reusing" a plastic box...

How cool is that?  Did I mention I was in a movie with Henry Thomas, the kid in the red jacket?  Okay… that’s a story for another time.  Nice guy. 

Back on topic, I have learned quite a bit about reducing, reusing, recycling and recovering from the experts in my time as an alternate director on the Comox Strathcona Waste Management committee. 

 

To add even MORE fun to the night, Comox Strathcona Waste Management is giving you the chance to win FRONT ROW SEATS (yes, you even get to KEEP the comfy adirondack chairs)at the show plus snacks at THIS LINK.  Follow the directions on how to enter on their facebook page and tell them what you do to support the solution to zero waste in our community.

 

Again, it’s a free presentation… bring your blankies and lawn chairs.  The show starts at dusk.  And if you still have this little guy, bring him too! 

Remember this guy? Still own one?

 

(No, that’s not mine.  I… gave mine away.  Years ago.)
