This event is a fundraiser for the 2009 Lakeport Fireworks show.
Due to financial constraints, the Lakeport Regional Chamber of Commerce is unable to fund the fireworks display for 2009, and going to the community is the method that seems the most viable, said Melissa Fulton, the chamber's chief executive officer.
LMSA has committed to a $2,000 donation and this exciting evening is our way in assisting a win/win for our community.
Imagine being in your favorite spot at Library Park enjoying that great old movie “American Graffiti” on a larger-than-life movie screen while you and your family lounge on your favorite blankets. We encourage you to bring your own lawn chairs for a more comfortable viewing and if you feel inspired come dressed as your favorite character from American Graffiti.
Dinner will consist of spaghetti and meatballs provided by Park Place Restaurant, salad with two choices of dressing provided by Molly Brennan’s Pub, garlic french bread provided by Main Street Pizza and Dessert will provided by Angelina’s Bakery.
The cost for this wonderful evening is $20 per person and children under 12 $10.
There will be a beer and wine reception at 6 p.m., with dinner at 7 p.m. The movie will start approximately 8:15 p.m. (dusk).
Major sponsors for this event are LMSA, Lake Event Designs, Park Place Restaurant, Molly Brennan’s Pub, Main Street Pizza and Angelina’s Bakery. We would like to thank each and every one of them.
The community has always been very supportive of the fireworks in Lakeport and although everyone is facing challenges in the current economy, there seems to be a widespread desire to carry on this great American Tradition.
Tickets may be purchased in advanced from The Kitchen Gallery at 302 N. Main St. in Lakeport, Hillside Honda at 460 S. Main St. in Lakeport and The Lakeport Regional Chamber of Commerce at Vista Point.
