Summer At The Movies

Free Movies and a Free Ride Compliments of Regal Entertainment Group

Cathedral City, July 16^th 2009 – Many people look forward to a getaway during the summer and for members of the Boys & Girls Club of Cathedral City one escape is a free trip to the movies. Regal Entertainment Group is providing the local Boys & Girls Club with a grant to cover transportation, gas costs and staffing expenses for the journey. And Club members enjoy free admission during Regal’s Free Family Film Festival.

“Our young people can’t wait to take a trip to the movies and it wouldn’t be possible without the generosity of Regal Entertainment Group,” said Jose Soto the Director of Operations for the Boys & Girls Club of Cathedral City. “The number of youth we serve often doubles in the summer, putting a strain on our financial and staff resources. We’re certainly grateful for opportunities like Regal’s Free Family Film Festival. Our goal is to offer fun and engaging activities for our young people, to constantly stretch their imagination while opening doors to a world of exploration and excitement.”

“Regal Entertainment Group is very excited to partner with Boys & Girls Clubs of America and to provide financial support for local Clubs across the country. By providing these grants for transportation to our theatres, we will be able to host young people from numerous Boys & Girls Clubs this summer,” said Dick Westerling, senior vice president of marketing and advertising for Regal Entertainment Group.

The Free Family Film Festival offers G and PG-rated movies for 9-weeks during the summer at participating Regal Cinemas, United Artists and Edwards Theatres. Boys & Girls Club of Cathedral City shares the joy at Regal Cinemas Rancho Stadium 16 located at The Market Place on Dinah Shore thanks to Regal’s grant program entitled Mornings at the Movies.
