      Could “pool and a movie” replace “dinner and a movie”? When summer temperatures reach their peak, we vote yes!

      By Melanie Hooks

      The last of Monterey Park’s Summer Movie Nights takes place this Saturday, Aug. 8, at Elder Park Pool, 1950 Wilcox Ave.

      Pool gates open at 7:00 pm, and the movie begins at sunset, approximately 8:00 pm.

      The featured film is the family favorite Shark Tale.

      Bring blankets and beach chairs to get comfortable while watching the movie on a giant screen. Attendees are welcome to spread out on the grass area.

      The event is free, and no registration or reservations are required.

      For more information about the city’s summer programs, visitmontereypark.ca.gov/movienights.
