Interior Savings and Minor Hockey host Drive-In Movie

Interior Savings and the Lillooet & District Minor Hockey Association successfully hosted a Drive-In Movie event at the Lillooet Airport on Saturday, August 22.

Interior Savings graciously sponsored this drive-in movie to allow Lillooet Minor Hockey to host a COVID-19 safe fundraising event. The movie was shown on a giant inflatable screen set up on the paved apron adjacent to the Lillooet Airport runway. Only those in vehicles were allowed to attend. 

This year’s movie event was Disney-Pixar’s Onward, an animated tale of two sibling elves who embark on a quest to find out if there is any magic left in the world.

“We want to thank Interior Savings for allowing us to once again host this fundraising event. These Movie Nights have raised over $30,000 for our organization over the last 8 years. Interior Savings bent over backwards to help us create a COVID-19 safe event in this difficult year,” said Heather Holt, event coordinator for Lillooet Minor Hockey.

Local sponsors for this event were: Lillooet Dental Clinic, Lillooet Medical Clinic, Bridge River Band (Xwisten), Shulaps Service Centre, Pharmasave, Buy Low Foods, Cayoose Creek Band (Sekw'el'was), T’it’q’et, North Canyon Contracting Inc.
