Folly Avenue Film Club presents Toy Story 4

Hello there Folly Avenue Film Club fans!! Have you been checking out our Facebook page or our blog Folly Avenue Film Club.

Woody, Buzz Lightyear and the rest of the gang embark on a road trip with Bonnie and a new toy named Forky. The adventurous journey turns into an unexpected reunion as Woody's slight detour leads him to his long-lost friend Bo Peep. As Woody and Bo discuss the old days, they soon start to realize that they're worlds apart when it comes to what they want from life as a toy.

Since measures were put in place to combat the pandemic, we have been very cautious about human interaction, we have striven to protect ourselves and others as best we can, and have watched news reports of protests, hoax claims and worse in disbelief. Regardless of your views, the numbers speak for themselves and we believe our caution is merited.

We have also come to realise that not only does each person have to take personal responsibility for their own protection, but that everyone’s level of comfort in a social situation may be different, and should be respected. We know that, regardless of what we do, some people will be too uncomfortable to sit in our yard with others and watch movies. Others will be wondering what all the fuss is about, now that the measures are beginning to lift.

Our position is this:

We respect that everyone has their own beliefs about the pandemic measures, and we therefore expect everyone will respect ours.

We believe that in order to make your own decision about personal safety, you need to be informed about what to expect. We are not insisting that you wear a mask, but we are expecting that you follow appropriate social distancing protocols for outdoor events.

Therefore, to that end we have put together a list of ‘rules’ - rules that will, for this summer at least, supersede ‘Da Rules’ which were written back in 2009 and which have been usurped to some extent by common practice over the years.

For Summer 2020…

EVERYONE will need to pre-register for movies through Eventbrite. This has always been a pretty essential thing, not just to predict numbers but also to help with inclement weather warnings etc. This summer we need to know who is coming so that our distancing measures will be appropriate.

Wherever you park your car, please enter the yard from the Darrow Drive side. We will be able to create walking passages to maintain distances if everyone does this.

Please bring your own chairs, blankets etc, and bring food and beverages only for yourselves. For this event ONLY, we will be providing ice cream!

No-one will be permitted in our house. Sorry. Not even for the bathroom. Please go before you come.

We will mark out ‘socially distant’ viewing spots - six feet diameter circles - for your safety.

If you have other suggestions, feel free to share them with us. About the social distancing of course, not the movies. That’s our thing…

We are sending you an email, in part to tell you what is coming up this summer but also to request that you let us know if you DON'T want to be on our mailing list!! We only want to hear from you if you want to unsubscribe, and if we DON'T hear from you we'll assume you still want to get invites and updates.

Check out the Facebook page often HERE, we use that for weather updates, quizzes and competitions, information about the movies and special events!!
