Family Movie night on August 26th - Windsor Locks "Green" - Behind the Middle School

We will have face painting and balloon animal making before the start of the movie, free popcorn, and the Lion's food truck will be available with food for purchase or you are welcome to bring a picnic dinner for your family and find a spot on the field! Bring your blankets, chairs, or whatever you wish to relax and watch "Inside Out" with our community!

If you would like to bring an outside family game to play with others. please do! Anytime from 6:30pm and on, you are welcome to join us! The movie will begin promptly at 8:30pm (or as soon as it is dark outside).

Sponsored by the Windsor Locks Community Partners - a collaborative group empowering parents and the community in partnering with the Windsor Locks Public Schools. Our children are the future of Windsor Locks and their success is reliant on the support of the entire community which includes teachers, parents, students, residents, and business owners.

Currently, we have a diverse group of community members attending the meetings from teachers, parents, pastors, retired community members, school board members, administration, and students. We are working to develop subcommittees to plan action within our community, some of which include Developing Surveys for the Community; Celebrations; Increasing Participation/Membership of the Community Partners; Student-Centered Learning Initiative; and Community Education/Marketing. Our hope is also for local business owners and more community members to get involved and share their wishes for their community. We are always accepting new members into this dynamic group and there are many ways for families and the community to engage and be active participants in working together – this could include attending monthly meetings, being part of a subcommittee, mentoring, and many other opportunities. We need YOUR voice!
