Season 2 of Movies, Games & More

Thursday, October 2nd, 2008

Now is your chance to give us suggestions for movies for season 2, activities you would like to see happen before the meetings, suggestions you have for the parks, suggestions you have for food you might like to see at the movies etc.

 

This year we fixed up the “Snack Bar” at Friendship, got a Popcorn machine for use by the blockwatches at both parks, got a pop up tent for the Fairview Blockwatch (Thanks Hammer Electric!!) and are in the process of getting some new signs for the parks with the rules etc. for the parks.

 

Don’t forget next week’s movies - Ghostbusters and Young Frankenstein!! Should be a Spooktacular good time!

Caddyshack - Pushed Until Spring 2009

Tuesday, September 2nd, 2008

Sorry to say this kids but Caddyshack is going to have to wait until Spring. The weather for Saturday is forecast as lousy and a confluence of factors has made it impossible for us to do Caddyshack until the Spring. On the bright side, the spring golf season will start off with a big bang!

 

Also, you duffers have more time to dig up those great outfits for the best dressed contest!!!

 

Released in 1980 and starring Bill Murray, Chevy Chase, Rodney Dangerfield, Ted Knight and Michael O’Keefe, Caddyshack is the funniest golf movie ever made.

 

Thanks to Starters Clubhouse Grille and Bethlehem Golf Club for sponsoring this event! For more info call Starters at 610-625-0060.

Children of Winter - Never Grow Old

Monday, September 1st, 2008

Every year about this time a small part of my brain switches like a light switch over to Ski Mania. It got started back at Liberty HS in 1978/79 when I learned to ski at Camelback. I was hooked. Skiers/Boarders…you know what I’m sayin…..

Back in those days, the ski hills had these movies on the tv’s in the lodge showing these guys doing incredible things on skis. It turns out these were Warren Miller Ski Movies.
 

Fast forward to today. Warren Miller Entertainment is still making these ski movies and the Northampton Community College Ski Club has been showing them at the College as a fundraier. This is the 59th film!!! It’s like $10 bucks and you get a voucher for a lift ticket to Elm Mountain! Hands down a no brainer.

Save the dates, Nov. 21 and 22. You will see skiers and boarders rip some incredible lines. It’s not a Movies, Games and More project, it’s just a shout out for my good buddy Kevin Manna over at Northampton Community College. Watch the trailer below for a taste of winter. As the title says….children of winter. Skiing and boarding means we old folk don’t need to grow up….at least up there on the hill. 

For more info see their website.

Go big or go home!
