As noted, we had about 50 members and the layout and use of the Temple parking lot worked perfectly. Once of our members set up his speakers and a sound system, and the Temple’s screen and projector worked perfectly well in the space. We dropped off notes at the homes of neighbors adjacent to the Temple to make sure there were no issues with the sound, as it was a weekday evening. Everyone was asked to bring a lawn chair, and the attached PDF shows the layout and placement of chairs, tables, projector. We set up a number of large tables with bagged snacks (chips, cookies, nuts) and soda cans in coolers with ice.

We initially investigated doing this as a drive-in with cars but decided to do it with chairs and not cars in order to accommodate more people and because of issues with the sound system.

There was no charge to attend the event.

We consulted with the Temple leadership and medical committee for permission to hold the event, and also checked with the Sharon Police Department and received their permission to hold the event.

We used white duct tape to mark off where members could place their chairs. Guys arrived before 6pm to start helping set up, and we told people to come at 7:30/8pm to schmooze – with masks of course. We began the movie at approximately 8:30pm.
