Everyone has probably heard that the city won't be presenting Star Spangled Fourth this July. Budget cuts and all. But the good news is that Firewheel Town Center is presenting free entertainment on Saturdays through much of the summer, June 20 to August 1.
 
Melody Kamp, Firewheel's Marketing Director, has been keeping me up to date on their plans and shared this information:
 

 
"Summer Concert Series & Movies Under the Stars" will be a perfect venue for providing free, family-friendly entertainment for the summer season at Firewheel Town Center. Beginning Saturday, June 20 and running through Saturday, August 1, families can enjoy events each Saturday evening in the Park. We are excited to bring this to Firewheel for families to enjoy.
 
There will be a 30- x 20-foot movie screen in the Park. The Park provides a perfect location for families to bring their blankets and lawn chairs. This location is also surrounded by our children's stores, new teen stores and fast food restaurants. We will be able to include bounce houses, face painting and vendors in displays surrounding the Park to create a fun, festive atmosphere.
 
We are working with AMC Theatres, which will have their grand opening of the new IMAX screen at Firewheel Town Center on Wednesday, June 24, starting with the blockbuster movie, Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen. They are excited. The Boy Scouts will be helping with donations of school supplies for the Salvation Army.
 

 
I hope to see you in the park!
