I just wanted to note that the movie dates and times in the park for Castle Rock are confusing. We showed up for the June 18th showing of City Slickers and it was not showing until July 30th. The announcement makes it appear as if it was today. Somewhat disappointing, but got over it and went to Chinese food. Here is the announcement copied from the website:

Don't see a need for the repetitive dates too.
Hey Bill, So Sorry for the confusion.. I'm glad you were able to rescue your evening with some Chinese. I've edited the dates.. not sure what happened but again I'm so sorry if you were inconvenienced.
