The Martin Luther King Jr. Day commemoration honoring King and his work looked and sounded different Monday, but that may have helped drive home some of the things the legendary
Fruita City Council will have a moment of silent reflection at the beginning of each regular city council meeting after a request from Mayor Joel Kincaid to open meetings with
Outdoor Cinema Series on May 21.
Once a month through September, the mall will showcase five films in a drive-in manner in the
South Sutherlands Parking Lot. No entry is allowed from the Patterson Road side. The first film being shown is âThe Sandlotâ to celebrate the start of the Junior College World Series. Gates open at 7:30 p.m., and the show begins at 8:30 p.m.
The mall is partnering with
Community Food Bank for the event
, so theyâre asking guests to provide canned food or cash donations as an entrance fee. The series is presented by
Alpine Bank.
When guests arrive, theyâll be directed to a parking spot by volunteers from the food bank. Volunteers will tune their radio to a designated station so that guests can listen along. A popcorn vendor will also be on site.
