Movie Night in Norris City May 19

by

Community movie night is coming around again! Friday night, May 19 on the Banterra parking lot is where this community event will take place. Local churches put a lot of effort into bringing this to the community.

The movie for the evening is "Family Camp.

Synopsis: "When Grace Ackerman signs her family up for their church’s rustic Family Camp, a comedy of errors ensues as the polar-opposite families must share a yurt and compete for the camp’s coveted games trophy. It’s not until the two dads end up lost in the woods that their faith and family bonds are truly tested in this heartwarming family comedy."

The free food starts at 6 p.m. and the movie begins at dusk. Bring your lawn chairs.
