Boys & Girls Clubs Of Northern Westchester Flip Over Flicks This Summer! — Regal Entertainment Group gives Club members an opportunity to go to the movies for free

Mount Kisco, NY, July 27, 2006 — Members of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northern Westchester will enjoy free admission to the movies for the duration of the summer, thanks to Regal Entertainment Group's Free Family Film Festival. Local youth will enjoy complimentary movie tickets for two morning showings each week at Regal Cinema's New Roc Stadium 18 in New Rochelle.

In addition, the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northern Westchester will receive $1,000 in funds to cover transportation and staffing expenses. This grant is very timely since it comes during a period when gas prices have reached an all-time high in most areas across the country.

"This generous offer from the Regal Theatre Group is a real lifesaver for us in the summer when the number of kids we serve often doubles," said Brian Skanes, Executive Director of the Boys & Girls Clubs of Northern Westchester. "Most importantly, this movie experience will be a first for many of our members and our goal is to constantly stretch their imagination, while opening doors to a world of exploration and excitement."

"Regal Entertainment Group is very excited to have developed a partnership with the Boys & Girls Clubs of America that will provide support to local Clubs across the country. This program was designed to offer resources that will enable the local Clubs to take their members to free movies at our theatres during the summer," said Dick Westerling, Senior Vice President Marketing and Advertising for Regal Entertainment Group. "Our theatres across the country will be working with the local Boys & Girls Clubs to coordinate and enhance this experience."
