Calling all cinephiles! Join the highly intelligent and (mostly) friendly staff of Movie Lovers for its Reach for the Stars Oscars Watch Party on Sunday, February 9th. The benefit for Reach Inc. begins at 5:30pm.
The evening starts with a rousing round of Oscars trivia. Register a team of three and test your knowledge of Academy Awards history. A $10 registration fee will be donated to Reach. There will be prizes for all contestants and a grand prize for the winner! Participants are welcome to rope in a staff member to give their team an edge. No fair! But really, imagine the glory when your team triumphs over the esteemed movie store clerk.
