Movie night to return in August

If you love watching movies under the downtown stars, then you’re in for a treat in August.

Back by popular demand, Downtown Movie Night will return for its third installment at its familiar spot on Court Square. This time, the fun-loving family adventure “E.T.” will be the movie of choice. It will be shown downtown on Saturday, Aug. 9.

Downtown Movie Night got its start two years ago when “Star Wars” was shown on a big screen which was constructed on the side wall of Cumberland Bank. Festivities included a replica of an actual X-wing fighter which was brought to McMinnville from the Hands On Science Center in Tullahoma.

Last year, “The Wizard of Oz” was shown, although the turnout wasn’t as impressive as the first year. Organizers with Leadership Warren are banking on “E.T.” being a better draw.

Activities will start on Court Square at 6 p.m. The movie will begin around 8 p.m.
