How many responding to this post will ever forget the Saturday matinee with a long array of cartoons from Bugs bunny to Mighty Mouse followed by a serial where the hero is left in an impending situation to be shown next Saturday and finally the main movie. Now that was entertainment:wave:

Spent many a Saturday in my youth at the local movie theater in my town called the Pastime. Several years back there was a trememdous effort to save this theater but unfortunately the funds needed could not be raised:(

As much as I enjoyed going to the movies, going to the roller rink in the next town over was my favorite activity. This was one of the old time wooden floor rinks that required all skaters to wear wooden wheeled skates. I hated having to wear the rented skates, so the Christmas I received official roller rink skates that had the rubber stoppers and pom poms on the toes along with a velvet black satin skating skirt made this girl a really happy camper:) That roller rink is now a daycare center :(
