NASHVILLE, Tenn. (WTVF) — Movies in the Park returns to Nashville’s Elmington Park after a successful first showing last week. This week’s feature is 13 going on 30.
“We're going to have some food trucks, giveaways - a bunch of our sponsors are going to be out here - we're going to have a dog cooling pool because it's going to be pretty hot. Then around 8 o'clock we're going to kick off the movie right at sundown,” says Robin Fomusa of the Nashville Scene.
Two more movie nights are planned with Barbie on the big screen Thursday, June 20th and Shrek on Thursday, June 27th.
Movies in the Park is a family and pet friendly event. You can bring chairs, blankets, your own food, but you are asked to leave tents and alcohol at home.
“Everyone of all ages from newborn babies to grandma and grandpa are going to be out here, and of course dogs too. Last week we had a bearded dragon, so you never know!”
My friend and colleague Carrie Sharp had a lot of fun last week, on an adventure to a country more than three thousand miles away! She’s back now – sharing her Adventures in Iceland through stories, and incredible images of this remarkably beautiful and unique island nation (kudos to Chief Photographer Catherine Steward)! But did you know Nashville has something very important in common with Iceland? Tourism! Here, Carrie explains how a volcanic eruption decades ago helped save the country’s economy from collapse!
