Free admission and family fun are in store this Saturday at the Sandell Drive-In where a Texas-sized double feature at will include Howardwick’s Dusty and Nikki Green up on the big screen.
The first showing will be the world premiere of a special episode of the Green’s PBS series Two for the Road, focusing on their adventures in the Big Bend country.
“We just can’t tell you how proud and excited we are to premiere our first ever Texas episode right here at home, and especially on the big screen at the Sandell,” Dusty Green said. “The episode itself features our first-ever trip down to the Big Bend area, and it all just came together beautifully. It’s going to look amazing up on that screen. And we really think folks will enjoy it.”
Gates will open at 6:00 p.m., and admission is free. Upon entry, each person will receive a ticket, which will be for special door prizes and giveaways featuring items from the Sandell, Two for the Road, Panhandle PBS, and Create TV.
Before the sun goes down, those attending can enjoy live music by local perfomer Jesse Lincycomb, and a dance floor will be available for anybody who feels like cuttin’ a rug. Other activities include an inflatable bounce house/slide for the kids and washer pitching.
The concession stand will be open selling food and drink, including the famous Sandell burgers and homemade chili, and Big Bend Brewing Company is providing a limited amount of their beer for grownups to sample.
The show itself will begin just after sundown (about 8:00 p.m.) with “Two for the Road: Texas,” and will be followed soon after by “The Secret Life of Walter Mitty.”
“We’re so thankful for the opportunity, and for the incredible amount of support and interest we’ve received from folks around the Panhandle – but especially here in Clarendon and Howardwick and Donley County,: Nikki Green said. “Everyone’s been wonderful! And we sure hope to have a big turnout Saturday night. It’s going to be a great night and a lot of fun for the whole family.”
