The Roslyn Film Festival began in 2007 and has been one of the most popular and successful events in our community. For those of you who might have missed it, you’ll have to watch for it this year. Everyone who attended had so much fun watching quality films, and then playing film critic by choosing the winning entries.
I want to thank all of the filmmakers who entered their short films into the contests in 2007 and 2008. Several of them also attended the festival, driving in from outside our region, and were willing to answer questions about their productions while we counted ballots to choose the winners.
Special thanks also for all the hard work to the members of the Roslyn Firehouse, the Roslyn Ladies Auxiliary, and the Roslyn Events Committee. In addition, I would like to thank Eckenhoff Cadillac for the popcorn machine, Chas’ Catering, and Riviera Pizza for the donation of door prizes for the event.
Adding community-building events is a very important and exciting part to the revitalization of Roslyn. The next scheduled event produced by the Roslyn Events Committee will be this year's Film Festival on March 28, 2009. If you are interested in more information, volunteering or being a vendor, please contact me at (215) 517-7502 or email info@roslynfilmfestival.com.
Again, I want to thank everyone who made the 1st and 2nd Annual Roslyn Film Festival huge successes, and am looking forward to another great sequel this year!
Sincerely,
Lori Schreiber
Abington Township Commissioner–Ward 14
