Main Street Bowie plans Outdoor Downtown Movie Night
Main Street Bowie is currently planning an Outdoor Downtown Movie Night Series, every first Friday of the month for the entire summer. The first Movie Night will be on May 12. You have the opportunity to bring the entire family out for a night of entertainment in fantastic Downtown Bowie. Movies will begin just as it is getting dark on East Tarrant Street, in front of the City Auditorium. The first film of the series will be the animated hit “The Secret Life of Pets.” Be sure to bring your own seating, but allow Main Street and the Bowie Rural Volunteer Fire Department to supply the snacks. Main Street will be selling drinks and candy for those with a sweet tooth. The Bowie Volunteer Rural Fire Department has generously offered to provide and cook hot dogs and popcorn, and donate all of the proceeds back to the Main Street Program.
Bowie Community Center presented a concert featuring the music country greats Patsy Cline and Johnny Cash this past Friday night.
