How to Train Your Dragon Plays Fogerty Park

The movie is the third in the city's Movies in the Park summer series.

The June movie in the park is almost here. How to Train Your Dragon will be shown at Wednesday, June 13. 

University City’s second annual Movies in the Parks series opened in April with a screening of American Graffiti. This is the third in a series of six “Coming of Age” movies hosted at a variety of area parks for the general public between April and October.

Selected by a film committee of volunteer residents, the free series will conclude with a viewers’ choice showing of Super 8, Goonies or Stand by Me.
