SAVANNAH MOTHER’S DAY WALK: Eight mothers lose a child to gun violence every day in America. That is simply unacceptable.

Join the Savannah chapter of Moms Demand Action for Gun Sense in America for a non-partisan Mother’s Day Walk in Forsyth Park and show our elected officials that we stand united for common sense gun laws.

Join us 4 PM Sunday, May 12th for a family-friendly Mother’s Day Walk in Savannah’s Forsyth Park. Participants are asked to carry 8 paper flowers to honor the 8 children lost to gun violence every day in this country. Mother’s Day is the perfect time to take a stand for common sense gun control laws to protect ALL our children!

Moms Demand Action is a non-partisan group of moms, dads, friends and concerned citizens devoted to enacting common sense gun legislation like universal background checks.

RSVP here.

Star Trek II: Wrath of Khan (1982) @ Lucas Theatre, Savannah
Patrons are encouraged to dress as their favorite Star Trek character. The best will have the chance to win great prizes.

It is the 23rd century. Admiral James T. Kirk (William Shatner) is not as young as he once was and the idea of accompanying his old ship, the USS Enterprise, now a Starfleet Academy training ship, on a two-week cadet cruise is not making him feel any younger. But the mission becomes a deadly serious when Kirk, the crew and the cadets must face his nemesis Khan Noonien Singh (Ricardo Montalbán). Khan has escaped from a 15-year exile to exact revenge on Kirk, the crew of the Enterprise must stop him from acquiring a powerful terraforming device named Genesis.
