Forget John Wick. Move over, Mission: Impossible. There’s a new action hero in town, and she’s 93 years old.

Join us for Senior Movie Night to watch "Thelma," a hilarious action-comedy where a grandmother gets scammed out of $10,000, refuses to sit down, and goes on a high-stakes scooter chase across Los Angeles to get her money back.

Sponsored by ArchWell Health - Apache Junction, we'll be hosting the movie night this Friday, October 16th, at Superstition Shadows Park. Food trucks, lemonade, and giveaways will be on site starting at 6:30pm.

Hope to see you there!

Any questions, please call the Senior Services desk at 480-474-5260.
