It's back. The 2021 Kalamazoo Parks and Recreation Department's Summer Cinema Series begins Friday evening (June 18th). The family friendly outdoor events will be every other Friday evening until early September, at city parks and other community gathering places. The City says they'll bring some snacks, but since these are movies, think about maybe popping a giant tub of your own popcorn. (And that way, you can salt and butter it to your taste.)
