Movies in the Park Starts Friday, July 16th  

 The ever-popular “Movies in the Park”returns to Leif Erikson Park on Friday, July 16th with the showing of Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull (PG-13).

Grab your blanket and enjoy an evening under the stars along the shore of Lake Superior. This free summer event was first introduced to Duluth in 2006 by Twin Ports Outdoor Movies.
