The Boys & Girls Clubs of North County board the summer movie express

FALLBROOK – Regal Entertainment Group has awarded the Boys & Girls Clubs of North County with a 2014 Summer Movie Express grant. Funds from this grant will help their members beat the heat this summer by attending predetermined movies like “Rio 2”, “The Lego Movie” and “Despicable Me 2” at the Edwards Movie Theater in Temecula.

“Our members are excited to watch some of their favorite movies while enjoying popcorn at a movie theater, but this grant is about more than movies. It’s about a new partnership between our Club and Regal Entertainment Group, and it’s about a new learning experience for our club members,” said Allison Barclay, CPO of the Boys & Girls Clubs of North County.

In addition to watching movies, the grant gives the club an opportunity to partner with the Edwards Movie Theater and create learning experiences for its members. This summer, club members will have the unique opportunity to take a behind-the-scenes tour of the movie theater and learn more about what it takes to give audiences around the world the gift of movies.

Edwards Movie Theater is also planning to host a Back to School Summer Book Drive for the Boys & Girls Clubs of North County. Throughout the month of August, members of the public will be able to go and watch all their favorite summer blockbusters while also helping to support their local Boys & Girls Club.
