Film Society Top Ten Reasons

Why You Need to Buy a 2008 Season Pass to the Garrett Park Film Society!

10. We must be doing something right—this is our sixth year of showing films.

9.    Wonderful equipment, including a 12-ft-wide screen, great visuals and sound.

8.    An excellent chance to see about 50 of your neighbors for no other reason but to have fun.

7.    Members receive letters before each film reminding them of the date and theme of the film (sometimes including coupons for soft drinks and popcorn; see reason 2).

6.    Newcomers to town get in free for the first movie. Call Leslie Bethke-Pope.

5.    Eight films in 2008 for $25 per individual or $40 per family! That’s beyond a bargain. Call Barbara Rodes.

4.    There must be something intangible when several members provide additional support, some way above and beyond the basic membership. And we have nearly 100-percent renewal!

3.    There must be something going on when more and more neighbors volunteer to help cook, sell, clean up, participate.

2.    Great food, prepared by volunteers, available at very reasonable prices. Also, coupons for soft drinks and popcorn (when available) are handed out to all members who   have renewed (and to new members as well).

1.    It is a great way to spend a Friday night—even if you start out tired! And it really doesn’t matter if you’ve seen the movie before or have home theater. We give great community at the Garrett Park Film Society.

We are planning to have food that makes you think of the West in January: BBQ, beans, … any volunteers out there? Call Suzanne Grefsheim or Meme Lincoln.
