FREE Movies!

The Harrisburg Mall is showing "Coraline" this Saturday May 30 at 10 on up to 10 screens.
They are showing free movies the last Saturday of every month as a free gift to their customers.

Back again for the summer is the Regal Entertainment Group's Family Film Festival. You can see one of two free movies every Tuesday or Wednesday at 10:00 am for the entire summer at the Regal in Harrisburg near the Shoppes of Susquehanna Place. We've had better luck attending the movies here than the similar free films at Cinema Center of CH because it tends to be less crowded and there are two options.(check back for those dates/titles soon) See the schedule below for dates and titles, it looks like there is something for everyone.

Adventurezone Playground to open May 30!

Hi Everyone!
I ran out of steam last June but I'm back to blogging and will updating this site regularly again.
The new accessible playground at 1755 Lambs Gap Rd in Mechanicsburg has been on hold since last summer so they could raise the funds to pour the floor. Their website http://www.adventurezoneplayground.com/ says they are having their grand opening this Saturday. I can't tell you how many times we drove by it last year hoping that it would be ready. As soon as we visit and confirm I'll tell you all about it here.
Have an idea for a playground you'd like me to visit or want to tell me about one of your favorites? Leave a comment or send me an email, I'd love to hear from you!

Max let me push him really high in this swing. I think he felt safe b/c the back is so high.

It's made of real wood so it must be older but was in great shape.
