Movie in the Park Recap
Happy tired. Another amazing night for our community.
Many thanks to our Rolando Park Elementary PTA for partnering with us to make this event possible. Great glow jewelry this year.
Our preshow activities continue to grow. Principal Noriega had her book giveaway table. Also joined by the Rolando Park Fire Safe Council, who surprised us all by arranging a visit from Fire Truck #10. An instant magnet for the kids (and many adults).
Some plugs for our vendors. All of them brought their A game. If you’ve seen our community banners on University Ave, you know that we support local businesses, so very happy to have our own Tacos & Catering El Bad Hombre, who never disappoint. Those tacos! Gelu Italian Ice, is our favorite treat to cool down on another hot day.
Jasmine, Zink Face Painting, was amazing. Lots of happy, painted kids running around.
Happys Party Rentals, arrived early and very quiet when taking down their equipment and leaving after the movie started. We didn’t even know that they were there!
Big thank you to Colina del Sol Recreation Center, who help us with all of the logistics, permits, promotions, etc. to stage this event and the Fun Company who work through the City of San Diego parks and rec dept to set up and show the summer run of Movies in the Park. Always on time and so organized.
Also joined this year by representatives from New York Life who are one of the corporate sponsors for the County’s Movie in the Park program. This year, the county funded more than 100 movie in the park events. We’re lucky to be one of them.
We hope that everyone who attended had a good time. Thank you for respecting the event and our park; 99.9 percent of last night’s trash made it to one of the trash cans and there was very little cleanup Sunday morning.
Oh, and the movie was great!
We will see you again next August!
Upcoming Events

Please support University Ave businesses during the University Bikeway construction!
Recently, we’ve been contacted by multiple businesses on University Ave between College Ave and 69th St. who have seen a dramatic drop in business as a result of the Bikeway construction.
