Sitting down for a movie is a very enjoyable experience. Getting to enjoy a movie that is suited for everyone in the family makes the experience that much better. With spring in full bloom across East Texas, our nights are very pleasant. This makes for a great time to get outside and enjoy a movie at the outdoor amphitheater at Bergfeld Park for Movies in the Park each Saturday night this month.

Starting this Saturday, May 7, you can get the family together and enjoy a family friendly movie under the East Texas stars. The only thing you need to bring is a lawn chair or a blanket and maybe a few snacks. Kona Ice is one of the many sponsors so I would assume they would be on site serving up their great frozen treats.

As we've seen happen several times already, Mother Nature may feel the need to make a visit one weekend. If that's the case, the scheduled movie will be moved to the next available Friday.

If you need any further details, go to the Tyler Parks and Recreation website or call 903-531-1214. Here is the schedule of movies coming this month for the family to enjoy:
