Harold Lloyd was a one of the biggest silent & talkie comedians from the 1910's-1940's. He made well over 200 films in his film career.
Harold didn't stop there he went on to pursue many hobbies and to become Imperial Potentate of the Shriners of North America(1949-1950). People all over the world still love and adore his characters he created on screen. Come celebrate Harold's birthday, life and movies with us at his childhood home(corner of 4th & Pawnee St) in Burchard, NE on May 1st starting at 4pm.
Our main film showing this year will be "THE KID BROTHER" from 1927. Our bash will be themed around this movie.
The events of the day include...
-Touring Harold's childhood home. ($2 a person)
-Trivia games for both children and adults. Prizes given to the one who knows the most!
-"Kid Brother" Scavenger Hunt. Can you find all of Harold's glasses around town?
-Supper time! Have a hot dog, chips and a drink. Don't forget a piece of Harold's Birthday Cake!
-Movie time! At dusk, we will set up a 16mm projector and show "THE KID BROTHER" on the side of Harold's house. Free Popcorn for everyone!
There's much more we have planned but those are some of the key events of the day. All the money made at this event will go back into the upkeep of Harold's house.
This year's event is possible because of the generous donations from the Pawnee County Promotional Network, The Harold Lloyd Foundation of Burchard, NE and fans like you that have given!
We welcome any and all donations! As an example, DHP Designs' head graphic artist volunteered his time and talent so we could have a great logo for the 2010 Bash. So it doesn't have to be a money donation, use your talent for Harold!
Can't make it to the Bash but still want something cool to remember it by and still help with our fundraiser? Just head on over to our NEW Harold Lloyd Birthday Bash Merchandise Store!!
