We held our first cinema at Liverty Park last Saturday Night. A terrific choice of films…Jurassic Park. The recreation department did a fantastic job setting up, and the location could easily accomodate 1000 or more. A permanent snackbar is located near the basketball courts, and it offers hot dogs, pizza, candy, and drinks. I would estimate Saturday’s crowd at 200-300, perhaps off a little because it was the first show of the season, a new location, and a four-day travel weekend for many folks.
We have a great line up of shows for the season. Next Satruday it will Be “City Slickers,”
Thanks to Spirit of Washington Dinner Train for co-sponsoring the cinema with the City of Renton. The Spirit of Washington’s gift of $20,000 makes this summer event possible.
Saturday Cinema at Liberty Park
So why doesn’t the City rename the event Spirit of Washington Cinema at Libery Park?
We have everything “IKEA” that the mayor could possibly rename to the point of being ridiculous and causing many to wonder if she is having an affair with the owner. So why not use the “naming game” for the cinema too.
Eric Temple deserves this honor after the way Councilman Clawson dishonored him at the city council meeting some weeks ago. This was when Clawson told him to get his own security when Mr. Temple had complained about crime from the transit center overflowing onto the Piazza Park. But then the Resolution materialized a few weeks later in support of the Dinner Train, but we hadn’t forgotten Dan Clawson’s true colors.
Let’s rename the park too. Spirit of Washington Pizza.
Liberty Park
I can’t place where Liberty Park is? What is it’s location? the one at foot of highlands?
