Movies Under The Stars At Firewheel Mall





Welcome to more free things in the summer!!!

Firewheel mall will not be having their usual celebration of fireworks, but instead are showing movies in the park every Saturday. Apparently, the park is the area behind the fountain in the center, I just never noticed it. Ha, I pay attention so well.

Anyways, the flyer explains everything pretty well. Click on it to see the big, readable version.

For those of you who don't know where Firewheel mall is, go to www.maps.google.com and type in Firewheel mall, it's the first link on there. The movies start at dusk each time. Also bring lawn chairs or blankets and bug spray so you don't get eaten alive by mosquitoes while sitting in the grass. Let me know if you have questions!

Fun In The Sun At Surf And Swim


Ever been to a wave pool? It's awesome! Granted, the waves are never quite as big as the ocean's, but you don't have to worry about getting sand in awkward places either(ew!).

My favorite wave pool is Surf And Swim. They're open 11-7 daily, and until 9 on Fridays. Kids 2 and under are free, and they even have a mini pool for them. People under 48" are $5, people 48" and over are $6. The address is 440 W. Oates Rd Garland, Tx 75043. I've been checking their website every so often, and they have some awesome deals going on this summer!

Every Tuesday
(June 9-August 18)
For only $25 you get 4 admissions, 4 hot dogs, and 4 drinks!!! That's and entire day of fun and food!

Thursday, June 25th
It's their 25th anniversary! to celebrate this, Surf And Swim will be charging the same price that they did in 1984!! For those of you 48" and up, you pay only $3.50! Everyone under 48" pays only $2. They will be open from 11a.m.-7p.m.. And, as if that isn't already awesome enough, they will have discounted food prices and free giveaways all day long!

Movie night!! I wasn't able to find a lot of details on this night, but here's what I know: Surf and Swim will be playing Kung Fu Panda at dusk(about 8:30p.m.) Normally they close at 9p.m. on Fridays, so I'm assuming they extended it for that day. Enjoy the movie, it's a good one.

Same thing, same time. This time Tale of Despereaux will be playing. it's a really cute movie!

That's all for Surf And Swim for now. I will most likely have a lot more blogs in the next few weeks, because there's about a million things going on this summer. So keep checking back regularly!!!
