Map details are at: http://www.linncounty.org/files/download.asp?type=Adobe&mode=view&I=5773 This can be difficult to find at night, so please print out the map if you have any doubts. Doors open at 5:30 for setup, a spaghetti meal with salad and drinks will be served at 6. The movie will start at 6:45. You may bring your own drinks/beverages or treats, if you wish. Surprise us! Milk, pop, coffee and tea will be provided. This event is targeted at GOLD members, WIE members, and especially those members with younger children. As always, your friends, neighbors and guests are welcome. We especially encourage you to let prospective members know about this, and invite them to the event. The movie usually ends about 8:30, early enough for the wee ones to get home and in bed. There will be endless bowls of popcorn for the movie, smores makings, and a cozy rug and pillows to flop on.
