This summer the Springfield Park District will host a series of outdoor monthly movies.  Each movie will begin at dusk, or around 8 p.m.  All of the movies are family-friendly and free. The park district has partnered with Ansar Shriners of Springfield to provide the concessions.  The first film of the series is the 2009 American drama, The Perfect Game, which tells the story of the Mexican baseball team that won the 1957 Little League World Series. It will be shown at Southwind Park.  Bring a lawn chair, sleeping bag or blankets to sit on. springfieldparks.org.
