2025 Outdoor Summer Movie List

Sponsored by

Hey Memory Maker!

If you’re new here…..Welcome to the Summer’s Summary where I send out weekly newsletter with things to do in the area and travel ideas! This one is all about movies so let’s get to it.

I love to be outside and watching FREE movies outdoors is a wonderful way to spend the summer. Well, all are free except the cemetery and drive in’s. With these happening throughout the week we should not have any reason not to get outside for the season! Perfect idea for summer dates or just bring the kids!

Summer Movies need Summer Shirts

Just launched my new Merch line! I’d love your support and to see you rockin your Summers Store Merch!
