Huh. No more recent movies this year?

Nick said...

No animation either. Maybe not ideal for the kiddies (though they probably shouldn't be out at that hour anyway).

Mary Poppins is a family-centered movie and has an animation sequence:

Was looking forward to a recent movie or two, but I'm just so happy we're doing this again! Outdoor movies on RI are probably my favorite summer activity!

The Wiz is a great kids film as well.
Oz is New York City with Michael Jackson as the Scarecrow,
Richard Pryor as The Wizard and Diana Ross as Dorothy ;)

Are dogs allowed on Firefighters Field?

Dogs are not allowed on Firefighters Field but some owners choose to ignore rule and bring their dogs on the field.

It seems to be one of those rules that is not enforced unless necessary -- a particular dog is causing a problem.
