Committee tentatively schedules Avalon indoor movie night for April 24

The Martin's Additions Community Engagement Committee tentatively scheduled an indoor movie night at the Avalon small theater for Thursday, April 24. The committee agreed to a social period before the screening and to allocate part of the event budget to concessions.

Speaker 3, a committee member, said, "So we're gonna do Thursday, April 24," presenting the Avalon's available slots and seating capacities. Committee members reviewed venue options: the small theater seats 133 and was quoted at $600 for a 5:30–7:45 slot with a strict 7:45 clear‑out, while later or longer time blocks at larger auditoria carry higher rental costs.

Speaker 2 noted the committee budget includes an allocation for concessions, saying, "The budget we got approved also included $12 ahead for concessions." Members discussed how that allotment would cover shared snacks rather than per‑person concessions and agreed to confirm exact concession amounts when final attendance estimates are available.

The committee discussed film selection and ratings. Speaker 5 confirmed the chosen title's rating, "It's PG‑13," and members agreed to welcome attendees aged 13 and older. Speaker 3 said the committee will check with the Avalon about licensing the selected film and prepare a backup title if licensing is not available.

For outreach, members agreed to produce a flyer two weeks before the event, place the item in the community newsletter, post to the neighborhood listserv and do door‑to‑door reminders. Speaker 7 offered to include the flyer in the newsletter if provided before the end of the month.

Next steps are confirming licensing with the Avalon, finalizing time and concessions logistics, producing promotional materials and handing off vendor responsibilities; the committee will report back to the group once those items are locked down.
