“Events such as the Movies In The Park in Alton jump out as a chance for kids, grandparents, mothers, and fathers to get out to have a good evening,” Scott said. “It is a chance for families to have a good evening and we cherish those kinds of opportunities.”

Scott said: “Spiderman No Way Home” is a wonderful movie and he is thankful to be able to show it at James Killion Park.

“This is something where AARP can step up to the plate and be a community advocate,” Scott said. “We do what we can to give back to communities and make them a better place to live.”
