Flint, Mich.– Communities First, Inc.’s 4th annual Movies Under the Stars outdoor summer film series is scheduled to screen the film “Grease” on July 14, 2017 at Crossroads Village (6140 Bray Rd., Flint).
After conducting a survey at last year’s Movies Under the Stars, it was highly requested that a movie be hosted for a more adult audience. As a result, this free event is geared to ages 13 and up. The movie will be preceded by a party at 7:30pm and the movie starts at dusk. A classic car show, live music from The Highballs Band out of the Detroit area, a dance party, costume contest and lawn games are scheduled for the evening. Movie snacks such as popcorn, candy and water will be provided. There will also be prize drawings for T-Shirts and gift cards.
There’s still time to park your classic car along the historic main street at Crossroads Village. If you are interested in participating in the show, please complete the Car Show Participant Form or contact Dena at djohnson@communitiesfirstinc.org.
Remaining films are:
July 28 – A Bug’s Life behind Flint City Hall
August 11 – Sing at Applewood Estate
August 25 – Finding Dory behind Flint City Hall
