Laser Rangers "Change the Rules" Saturday April 9

Welcome baseball season with the Laser Rangers April 9,
 watching A League of Their Own and Eight Men Out.

Well, they don't literally change their own rules.  The April 9 program is titled "Changing the Rules of the Game."

In honor of the start of baseball season, the movies of the night will be A League of Their Own, and Eight Men Out. Jessica Goodman is "Captain Laser" this month.

Theoretically, the group begins with social time around 4:15 p.m., and the first film starts about 4:45--but we tend to run on "fan time."

Laser Rangers is a small, informal group of movie buffs. One "ranger" is designated "Captain Laser," and acts as host for the evening.  Captain Laser also provides film notes, and makes sure the planned movies are there!

The home of the Laser Rangers is located about two miles north of the Kansas Speedway, northwest of the intersection of I-70 and I-435, on the Kansas side of the KC Metro area.  For directions, email David Sooby.

Our home theatre has comfortable seating for at least 15, and an audiophile-quality Dolby Digital 5.1 speaker system.
