The Wa-Ke Hatchee Recreational Center in south Fort Myers is hosting a “Moovie in the Park” on April 5 for south Fort Myers parents and children to spend quality time together.
The movie night, which begins at 5 p.m. will feature “Ice Age 2: The Meltdown”and will be played on a two-story inflated screen with professional stereo sound.
“It’s a nice family-oriented activity and the kids can run on the field and have a good time,” said Steve Cox, of the Wa-Ke Hatchee Recreational Center.
The Chick-fil-A at the Cypress Lake Plaza is the title sponsor of the event and will be selling food and hosting other activities until the movie begins at 7 p.m.
“This is an opportunity for us to connect to the community and the children in the area,” said Steve Bishop, the franchise owner of Chick-fil-A at Cypress Lake Plaza.
Bishop got involved with the Wa-Ke Hatchee center because his son attends the after school program and summer camp.
“We got to know the people there and they knew that I owned the Chick-fil-A and we discussed opportunities for sponsorship,” said Bishop, who has worked with the recreational center for the last three movie events.
The event is $5 and includes free popcorn courtesy of Lexington Country Club and activities like pony rides, family style games and Miracle’s Bat-A-Ball.
“It's always a G-rated movie that is family oriented and that's the type of restaurant we like to operate here,” Bishop said.
The recreational center has plans to host the movie event every year in the spring, Cox said.
