Legacy Park Movie Night usually takes place twice a year; once in the spring (around May 20th) and once in the fall (around September 16th). Pack 002 operates a concession stand during movie nights to raise money. There are usually between 200 and 300 people attending the movie night event.
Following are some notes with information about how its done and what needs to be brought or bought.
The movie is started just after dark, which is usually between 8:30 and 9:00 pm. Set up for the concession stand should begin by about 6:30 pm to get everything ready before dark, and to be able to begin selling before the movie starts.
Need 3 or 4 setup volunteers; 2 cooks; 3 adults to serve as food wrappers and cashiers; and 3 or 4 breakdown volunteers.
It is very important to have at least 2 of the foil trays full of cooked hot dogs and burgers and a large amount of popcorn popped and bagged early in the evening, to avoid having a long line waiting for food to be cooked. The foil sheets keep the food hot until it is served.
