The Blind Side at Movies in the Park!

Movies in the Park, the best little event on the waterfront! Each movie evening starts with live music at 7 pm followed by the movie on the big outdoor screen at dusk (usually around 8 pm). The fun takes place in North Straub Park, between 4th Ave. & 5th Ave. NE at Beach Drive. Come early and enjoy live music before the movie; enjoy a picnic or purchase food from one of the Saturday Morning Market’s favorite vendors who will be set up on-site. A limited number of folding chairs will be available, but better yet, bring your own blanket or low seat! Bicycling to movies is a fun way to arrive and free bicycle valet parking will be provided by the St. Petersburg Bike Co-Op. Free!

On May 21 SPP presents the 2009 film, The Blind Side, a touching movie based on a true story about a family who takes in a homeless boy, "Big Mike."  Sandra Bullock plays the mother in an Academy Award  winning role.  Mike goes on to not only start in college football but ultimately becomes a NFL football star.  The film is far more than a sports story and all will be touched by the story.  Evening's music will be by Sarasota Slim.
