We’ve have two fantastic film selections at the theatre this weekend and both are free, as always.

Starting us off at 6 p.m. on Friday and Saturday we have “Pirates of the Caribbean: The Curse of the Black Pearl,” rated PG-13. In this 2003 fantasy adventure, blacksmith Will Turner teams up with eccentric pirate Captain Jack Sparrow to save Elizabeth Swann, the governor's daughter and his love, from Jack's former pirate allies who are now undead.

Our second film rounds out Peter Jackson’s Hobbit Trilogy with “The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies” showing both Friday and Saturday at 7 p.m. In this final chapter, Bilbo Baggins and company are forced to engage in a war against an array of combatants and keep the Lonely Mountain from falling into the hands of a rising darkness.

Next week, on Wednesday, June 26, The De Golyer Bucking Horse and Bull Bash is sponsoring a movie at 7 p.m. — “The Cowboy Way” (1994), starring Woody Harrelson and Kiefer Sutherland. This sponsored movie precedes their 10th annual event on June 29, so be sure to check them out! The movie is rated PG-13.

In July we’ll be hosting Acid Box, a Fallon-local band that blends hard rock, heavy metal, and punk with a blues influence. They’ll be joined by additional local talent, Anabelle and the Desert Scrubs. Check them out on July 20 at 7 p.m. with a cover charge of $10.

And in August, don’t miss our annual summer fundraising 5K fun run/walk on Aug. 24: The Cantaloupe Canter. This event begins in front of the Indoor Pool, 333 Sheckler Road, and is a traditional event to help celebrate the Fallon Cantaloupe Festival and Country Fair which will be held Aug. 23-25. Early registration and sponsorship forms may be found on our website.
