Family movies will return to Orinda Community Park next summer, starting on June 14 and running every other Thursday through Aug. 9. "Movies in the Park," which typically attracts around 100 people in normal circumstances, was started by Michelle Lacy and the Parks and Rec Department in 2014. It is the direct descendent of Danville's Moonlight Movies, which was also started by Lacy during her tenure as Danville's recreation manager.
Orinda is seeking help deciding which five movies will be screened this summer and is asking the public to vote on the summer lineup for the Orinda Movies in the Park using the online survey website SurveyMonkey. The current choices are: "Coco," "Wonder," "Sound of Music," "Beauty and the Beast (2017)," "Smurfs: The Lost Village," "Cars 3," "The Goonies," "Mary Poppins," "Despicable Me 3," and "Leap!"
You may vote for five, or you may suggest a movie not included in the list at https://www.surveymonkey.com/r/Orindamovies2018.
Voting will close on Feb 9.
