Think summer: Think movies
The Spokane Valley Parks and Recreation Department wants to know which movies residents would like to watch outdoors.
Don’t laugh: The two free movies won’t be screened at Mirabeau Meadows Park until next summer.
What’s more, there’s no need to go outside to vote – not even to pop a ballot in the mailbox. Voting on a selection of movies in two categories may be done over the Internet.
Choices for a family movie are: “Wall-E,” “High School Musical 3,” “Bolt,” “Kung-Fu Panda” and “Nim’s Island.”
Teen flick nominees are: “Iron Man,” “Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull,” “Journey to the Center of the Earth,” “Ferris Bueller’s Day Off” and “Princess Bride.”
Don’t like the choices? City officials say they’ll consider write-in candidates as long as they’re rated PG or PG-13.
To vote, go to www.spokanevalley.org and click on “Hot Topics.”
Prefer a polling booth? Fine. Go to CenterPlace, 2426 N. Discovery Place, to fill out a ballot. Balloting closes Feb. 9.
The winners will be projected on July 23 and Aug. 20.
