LAWN SEATING

Our lawn seating allows families to get out and have a movie picnic experience! This area will be socially distanced, with 6 feet apart from other families. Bring your own blankets or lawn chairs to help create a social distance boundary for your family. This is also a good option for families with young children who need breaks or an area to move around.

SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

Safety is our top priority for all our gatherings! Here are a few safety precautions we will be taking to ensure safety for your family:

  • Social distancing will be practiced at all times (seating areas, activity and concession lines, etc.)
  • Volunteers will wear face masks or face shields.
  • Pre-movie activities: Sanitizing shared items/surfaces in between guests; the wiggle worm train will be disinfected with hospital-grade disinfectant, then protected with another layer of probiotic microflora that prevents the growth of harmful pathogens.
  • Handwashing stations will be available in both seating areas.
