Mark your calendars! The annual "Community-Wide Movie" benefiting the Social Services Holiday Gift drive is scheduled for Friday, December 2. Taking place at the Darien Playhouse, the feature presentation will be the newly released film: “THE MUPPETS!” This event is "free," however in lieu of payment, each movie-goer is asked to bring donations as follows: gift cards (e.g. Barnes & Nobles; Walmart; CVS; Walgreen’s; Target; Subway; etc.) a new toy, books, etc. (All items should be new and unwrapped with a value of at least $10 each.) To get tickets, an adult should come the Darien Youth Commission office in the Town Hall between 9:00 a.m. and 1:00 p.m. on Thursday, 12/01 or Friday, 12/02. Tickets for admission will be issued at this time. Movie-goers should bring tickets and gifts to the theater for admissions. (Theater doors open @ 3:30; show-time is 4:00.) This event is not a drop-off event. All children must be accompanied by an adult (at least one adult per four children is required.) Tickets and gifts are required for adult movie-goers as well. Sponsored by the Selectman's Office, the Darien Youth Commission, the Depot, the Darien Social Services Department and the Darien Playhouse, inquiries should be directed to 656-7388 or asillars@darienct.gov. (Please note that tickets this year are more limited as we only have access to one theater.)
