Summer Days = Cheap Movies

For those of you in the DC Metro area looking for a fun way to spend the day, here is a list of movie theaters who are offering free (or discounted) showings for the summer!  Parents can enjoy the blessing of A/C, while the children are glued to the screen.   I’ve split the listings up, based on location – and, you’ll notice the majority are in the Loudoun County area.  Can you guess where I live?
