Friday evening, July 17, 2009, the SERO VMERG held a Military Family Appreciation Movie Night. We welcomed 15 military family members into C31/32 with big smiles and to the aroma of freshly popped popcorn. The evening began with pizza, popcorn, drinks and fellowship. There was an activity table for the children to color/draw on before and during the movie.
After dinner, everyone gathered around for the main attraction. The adults relaxed on couches and comfy chairs while the children stretched out on body pillows provided by Michelle Walter. Vice Chair, Carolyn Barczik, aka Movie Theatre Attendant, provided us with an entertaining safety briefing. Immediately following the briefing, we watched the movie “Beverly Hills Chihuahua.”
As our guests were leaving, the adults were presented with a family photograph which was taken in front of the 777 in the lobby and each child was presented with an amenities kit filled with snacks and goodies.
This evening wouldn’t have been possible without the help of everyone involved. A big thank you goes out to Troy Wreggelsworth for helping to create a wide screen movie theatre atmosphere with the sight and sounds, Wade Oakes for the ice, Kathy Slotter and Stephanie Nicholson for helping greet our families and to Operations for offering to give directions and greet our guests. I would also like to thank Mark and Nicholas Montrose, Joel Adams, Wayne Moorefield, Stacey Kerch, Judy and Eric Lundberg, Bruce Chase, Michelle Walter, Sharon and Ed Ryder, Carolyn Barczik, Krista Leap, Patricia Seelbach, Joe Fish and Patsy Shepherd for helping set up, entertain and clean up!
