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 this time around, you’ll have to watch for it next time.  Everyone who attends has a great time 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 for the last seven years.  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.

Adding community-building events is a very important and exciting part to the revitalization of Roslyn. Again, I want to thank everyone who makes our annual Roslyn Film Festival a huge success every year, and am looking forward to another great sequel in 2014!

Sincerely,
Lori Schreiber
Abington Township Commissioner–Ward 14
