Posted by Fred Steiner on Thursday, July 2, 2015

You can watch a free outdoor movie in Ada on Friday night. 

That's right. And, Woody and Buzz Lightyear will be there.

The movie, Toy Story, will be shown on a 40-foot screen on the Ohio Northern University tundra. This is the second of three free outdoor summer movies sponsored by The Freed Center for the Performing Arts and Bluffton Hospital.

The movie starts at dusk. ReStore will sell pop, popcorn and candy during the movie. Families are invited to bring lawn chairs and blankets to enjoy the movie under the stars.

This is the first full length animated film, and it was a blockbuster produced by Pixar and distributed by Disney in 1995.
