Community fundraiser on screen

Prepare to sing and enjoy a movie with the entire family under the stars in Heywood this weekend. Popular animated film Sing 2 will hit the big screen at the Heywood Town Green on Saturday as part of the Glenelg Shire’s outdoor cinema in partnership with the Promoting Heywood and District Committee.

The event kicks off from 4pm with a car boot sale, children’s activities and food and drink options, followed by the Sing 2 screening at sundown.

Sing 2 is the sequel to the animated family musical Sing and follows can-do koala Buster Moon and his all-star cast of animal performers as they prepare to launch a stage extravaganza in the entertainment capital of the world.

Glenelg Shire Council Mayor Cr Anita Rank said the event was a reschedule from earlier this year, whereby inclement weather had forced the unexpected cancellation.

“It’s take two for the Heywood Twilight Cinema, and we hope that the mild Spring weather will encourage families from across the Shire to come and make the most of this local, family-friendly event,” she said.

“We thank the Promoting Heywood and District Committee who are hosting the event with the support of Council, and will use the cinema as an opportunity to bring locals and visitors together in Heywood.

“So rug up, bring your chair and blanket and enjoy a movie under the stars at the Heywood Town Green this weekend.”
