Huge crowd for Flicks on Fifth

Main Street Greenville presented its first Flick on 5th Thursday night as a huge crowd of 300+, mostly families with small children, watched Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. The large movie screen was placed near the intersection of Fifth and Broadway, and the crowd extended all the way back to the alley behind the Palace and the Bistro (the photo below shows just a small portion of the crowd).

Thursday night's crowd far surpassed any of the three movies Main Street Greenville presented during its last run in 2008. Thanks again to all the sponsors: Harry D. Stephens Foundation, GTI, Greenville National Bank, Leis Realty, Law Office of Jason Aslinger, Buchy Foods, Rep. Jim Zehringer, Steve and Eileen Litchfield and John and Ginger Warner.

The next Flick on 5th will be July 15th, and later today a poll will be posted with the new movie choices.
