Default Gorgas Park movie series cancelled?

There is a big CANCELLED sticker on their signs promoting the event. Does anyone know why? I couldn't find any mention on their website.

The movie was postponed until next Tuesday, August 16th because of the early wet weather and the forecast. Of course, when we listen to the weatherman, it never rains. We usually take the forecast as FYI and watch the sky and wait until late afternoon before we decide whether to 'go' or 'no go' on our events. Sorry for any inconvenience that might have caused. There is also a concert next week, bluesman Steve Guyger, on the 18th. The city is making us move our banner inside the park; after seven years, they have decided to start enforcing the law (no banners over streets and right-of-ways). We'll have to have that big red sign changed to say 'Tonite's Event Postponed' instead of 'Cancelled'. We probably updated the website after you looked. We will probably be adding an extra concert date on Sept 8th, which we will advertise.

We're postponing Shrek 2 one more time to tomorrow, Wed, Aug 17th on account of today's wet weather. The movie starts at dusk. Hopefully the third time is the charm.

Bumping this thread - it needs some publicity!

Come see Shrek 2 tonight at Gorgas Park.
