Free Millside Movies: The Goonies // SATURDAY
Everyone knows the best things in life are free, and movies are no exception. Why spend your money at the theater when you could get this dose of nostalgia for free? Take your kids to experience the Goonies’ treasure hunt that you enjoyed watching in the ‘80s, or relive this memory on your own. Either way, its a fun and free way to spend your Saturday night. Millside Park, 2 Ferry St., Easthampton. 9 p.m.
