Ginger McDonald reports that the Monthly Monday Morning Movie Series sponsored by Los Gatos Thrives is a tremendous success. Next up is “Mission Impossible: Final Reckoning” on Monday, June 2, at CineLux Los Gatos Theatre. A $10 ticket gets you coffee, a movie and a chance to mingle with your neighbors.
The group is adding a Kids Movie Matinee series, complete with a Looney Tunes cartoon to open the show. The series is scheduled to kick off in mid-June.
“It’s a lot of clever work by a lot of community movers and shakers, with the purpose to make Los Gatos a friendly place for all generations,” McDonald says. www.losgatosthrives.com
