10th Annual Outdoor Movie Night will feature 2 hour pre-show fun and games

Ballinger and Meridian Park Neighborhood Associations once again present the wildly popular free Outdoor Movie Night at The Aldercrest Annex, a spacious venue in Shoreline on August 25th starting at 6:30pm.

A giant movie screen will be set up on one end of the field and tents of activities will ring the grassy seating area. The Snack bar will be open with enticing and refreshing treats. This year's film presentation is the epic fantasy "The NeverEnding Story".

For two hours before the movie, children of all ages will have the opportunity to play a variety of games, make movie-themed crafts, get their faces painted, take pictures in the photo booth, have a balloon animal made, and make giant bubbles. Robotics and remote control planes will be demonstrated.

Right before the movie there will be multiple prize drawings, and each group entering the event together will receive a complimentary ticket, with more available for a nominal donation. This event is a fundraiser for neighborhood activities. There is no charge to attend this event. Any donations are thankfully received.

After the prize drawings are complete, the movie begins and runs 94 minutes.

Please bring: a blanket or low backed chair to sit on, flashlight for leaving after dark, sunglasses and/or a hat, and a jacket due to a temperature drop when the sun goes down.

The Aldercrest Annex is located at 2545 NE 200th St. near 25th Ave NE and Ballinger Way NE. There is free general parking, ADA designated parking close to the field, and carpooling is encouraged!
