Please come join us at 5:00 as we kick off an exciting set of events – from the Choir singing the National Anthem, familiar faces from recent KFC, to raffle drawings, ceremonies and more! It’s still not too late to sign up or raise money for Relay for Life, a fundraiser for the American Cancer Society. Keep in mind that walking or running laps at the track during Relay will raise money — so burn some calories and raise money at the same time!

In anticipation of his arrival, you will have a chance to see the film itself this Sunday, May 19, at 10:00, 12:00, or 2:00, also in the Garonzik. The New Yorker calls Central Park Five “perhaps the most devastating portrait of contemporary social inequality to appear in an American documentary.” Come see why this Sunday.
