2010 Summer Membership Drive
Our 2010 Summer Membership Drive has begun. We’re shooting for 100 new members this summer! All new or renewing members between June 1st and August 13th will be entered to win the coveted Bride of Goldfinger Card (free Pickford Cinema movies for a year), and other great prizes in a drawing held at our 2nd Annual Bike-In on Bay Street, Saturday, Friday 13th. You can see basic Bike-In info on our events page and more info will be posted as the summer goes on.
Win additional drawing entries by referring new members. Pass along a membership form and make sure they indicate somewhere that you have referred them. Forms can be found online, in the calendar, at our box office, and attached to this email. You can also email Andrea with the email addresses and names of friends that might be interested and she will follow up with them.

Pickford E-Notices
In an effort to reduce the amount of waste we generate, we are excited to offer Pickford E-Notices, our new paperless communication option. If you would like to receive all future renewal notices, donation acknowledgements, and other PFC member communication via email, please email Andrea and say “Sign me up!” You will continue to receive the physical Pickford Cinema calendar by mail every two months unless you request otherwise. And of course, you can change your preferences at any time with a quick email or phone call. Over 50% of our members this year have opted for E-Notices. It’s easy to sign up, convenient to receive and file, and we’re not creating all that silly paper waste! Please note, this is not the same as the weekly Pickford Cinema update from Michael. If you receive your renewal notice by mail, it means you are not signed up for this option yet.
