Held on Thursday evenings throughout July and August, each SummerStarz evening begins with a Children’s Hour at 6 pm (arts & crafts, games, music and/or theater sessions), followed by a live musical performance at 7 pm, and a family friendly movie at sunset.

We also offered recycling services for textiles, books, toys and e-waste at this Thursdays' Summer Starz evening. As we always say, one man's trash is another man's treasure. People brought their gently used clothes, bedding, books, toys, and electronics and carted away as much as they pleased. All remaining items were donated to a local charity.
