“This year, we wanted to start something different,” states Dan Fisher, Vice President of the Iron Runners. "We thought there could be a way we could support local businesses and organizations while at the same time providing an outing for the community. In the end, our Free Movie night in support of the local groups was created. "

The Movie night offered patrons free admission if they brought an item for the Vegreville Food Bank.

"The large attendance produced a truck box full of much needed food donations for the Vegreville Food Bank.  Members are grateful to all the movie patrons who came and donated. With the success of this first event, the Auto Club hopes to bring another movie event to Vegreville in the future.”
