Description Friends of Pathways presents the Inaugural Annual Bike-IN Movie Jackson Hole Friends of Pathways is pleased to bring the Jackson Hole community the 1st Annual Bike-IN Movie. The first of its kind in Jackson Hole, this event will bring together the classic feel of an outdoor movie without the driving. Working with our premier sponsors the Center for the Arts, Fitzgerald's Bicycles and the Snake River Brewery, the Bike-IN will take place on August 15th at the Center's outdoor amphitheater, 265 S. Cache Street. The event will feature three independent bike films: Bikes vs. Boyfriends, Ryan Leach in Prague and Seasons. The free event is scheduled to begin at 6:30pm with films beginning at 8:30pm and all members of the community, plus visitors, are encouraged to attend. Dogs are not allowed on the Center for the Arts lawn and will not be permitted to attend. "We're really excited to start using the amphitheater and lawn at the Center for the Arts for it's originally intended purposes; community focused, family friendly events. We hope to see more events like this happen in the future." stated Doug Henderson, Center for the Arts Facility Director. Food, beverages and treats will be sold at the event. Pica's Taqueria, The Bunnery, Betty Rock, Snake River Brewery and the Liquor Store have all generously donated their tasty food and beverages to support pathways and trails. Local shops and non-profits will be providing a bike festival type atmosphere with contests and games for the entire family. Computers will be available so GoByBike participants will be able to log miles and continue to compete for most miles logged (www.gobybike.friendsofpathways.org). A great raffle is planned which includes an Electra 7-speed cruiser bike generously donated by Wildernest Sports. "We're really looking forward to a fun bike festival evening of eating good food, having fun and watching some amazing films" said premier sponsor Scott Fitzgerald of Fitzgerald's Bicycles. All proceeds from the event will benefit the trails and pathways in Jackson Hole. Stephanie Thomas, Friends of Pathways Development and Communications Director remarked, "This really was a perfect way to bring together our mission of promoting non-motorized transportation with great entertainment and lots of community fun". Friends of Pathways is celebrating its 15th year of promoting a complete pathways system, safer streets and great trails for Jackson Hole.
