1. July 1^st will be the first movie night for the Glenwood Springs. The theme for the season is 90’s movies.  We voted on selling popcorn and water for this project.  Kathy Wren ordered popcorn in a tube for the project, we will check water bottle prices.  Thinking to charge $5.00 for the combination.  Nettie from the public health department said we will be able to do without a permit. We will need a couple microwaves for this project, Kathy and Sharon have microwaves available for this project.  Everyone thought the first night as many Lions club member should come to the movie night.
