Pat Rudstrom, Nederland. In an effort to ease the stress of our new normal a little, we, as your volunteers, have come up with a way to perform a community service & to let our audience know we’re still thinking about you! We may not be able to watch movies together right now, but we can still enjoy them with our families!

We have come up with a list of movies and TV series you may be interested in watching (or re-watching!). We’ll post a list once a week, with additions as we get them. If you have suggestions, please send them to me and I will get them added. All I ask is that you provide where the title can be found (Netflix, etc).

We hope this just gives you another reason to be glad you live in Ned!!! Please stay healthy!!!!
