UUFA News

Let’s Go To The Movies!

Are you a movie lover? Do you like to go to a theater sometimes rather than watch in your living room? Several people have expressed interest in reestablishing the UUFA movie group that we called Film Fans. Before COVID changed everything in our lives, several of us would gather once a month to attend a movie, and we enjoyed another opportunity to share in fun with our UUFA family and friends.

The UUFA Film Fans will be attending two movies in July, both at Athens Cine: Oppenheimer on Friday, July 21, at 5:15 p.m. and The Life of Judge Roy Bean on Tuesday, July 25, at 2:30 p.m.

Contact Carol-Lee Baker (carlee1945@gmail.com, 706-483-2314) or look for the group in Realm and join today!

Happenings in a List!
