Catch A Free Movie At Bergfeld Park This Weekend

(Tyler, Texas)  Since Christmas is the best time of the year, Spring in East Texas is the second best time of the year.

Everything is coming to life after being dormant for the past five months. Flowers are in bloom, tree leaves are budding, birds are chirping, the temperature is very comfortable and East Texans are getting out and taking charge of life.

We try our best to keep our cars clean, but the pollen has us hitting the car wash every couple of days. The weekly routine of mowing the yard also begins and the outdoor projects get underway too.

While there are things to do around the house, we still need to take time for some relaxation, adventures with family and friends and just to have some fun.

The Tyler Parks and Recreation Department Movies In The Park series

One great way to have some family fun is bonding over watching a movie together and Tyler Parks and Recreation will be bringing families and friends together with the bi-annual Movies In The Park series.

You can watch a free movie underneath the stars at Bergfeld Park in Tyler. You'll want to bring a lawn chair, definitely, a blanket, because it still gets chilly, and maybe some movie snacks, like candy, popcorn, and some soft drinks.
