Family Film Fridays: Madagascar 3

We're so excited to report that more than 200 people came out to enjoy the library's June Family Film Friday in the park. With the support of our sponsor, Premier Bank & Trust, the library will continue the FREE series of films shown outdoors in North Canton’s Bitzer Park this summer. The next film will be tomorrow, Friday, July 12. Bring a blanket and your family. Refreshments will be available.

Children's activities will have a carnival theme this month. Among other activities, the library will provide a carnival themed photo "booth," so remember to bring your phones or cameras and post your photos with the hashtag #FamilyFilmFridays.

This month, the community support is even more impressive. We're so fortunate to be part of this generous community.

So many people to thank (and so much fun for all of you to explore!):

  • Premier Bank & Trust is providing sponsorship funds for the July film (rumor has it they'll have free popcorn for attendees too!)
  • MissionView Church is providing a variety of carnival games for children
  • The Little Art Gallery of the NCPL is providing carnival crafts for children
  • Fellow Patch Blogger, Ken Pelosi, will be making balloon animals
  • The North Canton Chamber of Commerce and the North Canton Community Growth Association provided the banner in the park advertising the program
  • Northminster Presbyterian Church is providing a sound system so we can all hear Marty, Alex, Melman and Gloria really well
  • CKP Heating & Cooling is providing corn hole boards
  • The North Canton Playhouse is managing the concession stand
  • The North Canton YMCA is allowing us to use their outdoor power outlets and lending us table and chairs
  • WeJoySing will bring as assortment of musical activities

We’re grateful to all of these businesses and organizations for their support.

Children's activities begin at 7 p.m. and the film begins at dusk.

Bitzer Park is the green space next to the North Canton YMCA.
