2009 Season will be here before you know it!!!!

It's COLD as can be outside and we've all had a touch of cabin fever with this long winter, but Outdoor Cinema Events is thinking Spring and already prepping for movies, music, and fun for the 2009 Season! Our first season was a huge success, and we thank each and every one of you who hosted, sponsored, and attended our events. Without you, well, we wouldn't be here for a second season. Many told us that an outdoor movie business wouldn't thrive in the Riverbend area, and thanks to you all we've proved them wrong!

Our last movie event of the season in October entertained over 500 audience members from the Alton/Godfrey community at Haskell Park...AMAZING! It was truly one of those events where we had to stop to take it all in. People of all ages arrived early to enjoy the music, get popcorn and soda from the concession stand and socialize with their friends and neighbors. Some took the opportunity to relax and sprawl out on the lawn on their blankets, while the kids played and anxiously waited for the movie to start. That night was truly a display of what we hoped Outdoor Cinema Events would encourage in the Riverbend, community togetherness. It was also an example that our community can and will embrace new and exciting activities and traditions for families, friends, and neighbors to enjoy together.

As lifelong residents of the Riverbend it is with great excitement and optimism that we continue to build upon our idea that something as simple as outdoor movies in the park will give everyone something to look forward to weekend after weekend all summer long. I mean it's not everyday you can take your entire family to a show and it's FREE! That's the best part about us, because in these hard economic times it's often difficult to afford the luxury of recreational and leisure activities.

We look forward to an even better 2009 Season and hope that you will continue to support us by turning out at our events this spring and summer. And if you are interested in hosting or sponsoring an event, whether for a private party or business/organization, we hope to hear from you! Once again we are offering low-cost Advertising packages for those wanting to showcase their business on the BIG SCREEN at our events! Give us a call! 618-531-9335
