Time for another Saturday in the Park with Friends (of Riverfront). And that means it's movie night at Beloit's Riverside Park - August 15th! This year's movie is "Field of Dreams" and baseball is the theme of the day. The outdoor movie will be shown on the new "big lawn" area created where the old Ace Hardware building stood.
As part of this event, we're going to try and capture some special photo scenes along the riverfront. We start around NOON with representatives from the Beloit Snappers emerging from a field of corn created along the riverfront from 350 or so fully grown corn plants along the river) like in the movie. If we succeed in this, you'll see the results in future promotions as we did with the Seurat recreation in 2006. (If we don't, we'll have a really good time trying!)
The event itself is later, in the evening, starting with a ribbon cutting ceremony for the new Riverside Park Promenade. There will be food and games, and we'll be trying a few shots of the crowd, movie and the new lawn area with a little help from Aliant Energy and the Beloit Fire Department. And then, it's movie time!
So... come on down and be part of what should be
a B-E-A-U-tiful Saturday in the Park with Friends!
