The Northampton Area High School DECA (Distributive Education Clubs of America) Club team of Olivia Daniels and Tyler Bennett will be hosting a movie night at Northampton’s Municipal Park 5-10:30 p.m. Sept. 24. The movie “Zootopia” will be shown 8 p.m. with a variety of activities beforehand.

The band entertainment and movie are free. There will be an assortment of food and beverages for purchase.

The money raised will benefit Dream Come True, Lehigh Valley. This organization allows terminally ill children to have their biggest dreams come true despite their condition or the financial state of the family.

Specifically, funds will help Guiliana, a young girl with acute lymphoblastic leukemia, go to Hawaii for the trip of a lifetime.

Vince’s Cheesesteaks and Kona Ice will be on hand. An assortment of other food items will be available, such as a bake sale, candy, popcorn, walking tacos, hot dogs and more.

Prior to the start of the movie, Band of Brothers will be performing classic rock hits in the band shell.

Balloons by Cindy will entertain children throughout the night.

Donations will be collected. A 50/50 raffle and gift card auction will also be held.
