The Monsters at the Park event is a welcomed
return to tradition as there was no Halloween movie in 2012. “Monster’s University”
joins past Halloween movie night traditions like “Igor” held in the Halloween
spirit at the Halloween Movie Night back on Friday, Oct. 30, in 2009. That movie was sponsored by Gus Machado Ford,
whose donations to the event included providing residents with microwave popcorn to bring to the park.
I like to see the family themed
events continue in Palmetto Bay. Other past Halloween themed movie events
included “Monster House” in 2010. The tradition really got its start in 2006
with the 1984 classic “Ghostbusters.”
Both Ghostbusters and “Night at the Museum” (I believe our second movie
night) with both attracting overflow crowds of well over 500 (some counts had
the “Night at the Museum” crowd over 700, a record still unmatched) with residents
filling the larger green space located between the tennis courts and Coral Reef
Drive. The movie nights are presently held
in a cozier venue, located at the large gazebo on the 77th Avenue
side of Coral Reef Park.
Have a safe and fun Halloween.
Great job to all who contacted Palmetto Bay and demanded our police. Our family and friends will be out in the neighbors. We appreciate having the pumpkin patrol out there.
