If you love the outdoors or just need a little inspiration to get out there, then the fourth Annual Wild and Scenic Film Festival, a fundraiser for the Montezuma County Land Conservancy, might be just the place for you.<\/p>\n
The event takes place this Friday at the Dolores Community Center and will feature a lineup of short, inspirational films.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a really good lineup. We have a lot of fun films and a lot of inspirational ones,\u201d said Molly Fales, conservation director with the Montezuma County Land Conservancy.<\/p>\n
Fourteen 14 films will be played Friday, totaling about two hours worth of movies.<\/p>\n
\u201cThere is a mix of outdoor and conservation films and two ski movies,\u201d Fales said. \u201cMost of the movies are four or five minutes long.\u201d<\/p>\n
There will be a 30-minute intermission during the movies to give away door prizes.<\/p>\n
\u201cThey are quick, fun movies,\u201d Fales said.<\/p>\n
Some of the movies include: \u201cJoy of Air,\u201d a movie that showcases people hitting ski and bike jumps; \u201cInto the Mind,\u201d a ski movie; \u201cTahoe Time 1.5,\u201d a movie showcasing pretty scenery from Tahoe; a fishing movie about catching steelhead on the northwest; and a film about a man from Buena Vista talking about survival skills.<\/p>\n
Also at the event will be a pie auction.<\/p>\n
\u201cThe pies are always really popular,\u201d Fales said.<\/p>\n
This is the fourth year the Montezuma County Land Conservancy has hosted the Wild and Scenic Film Festival.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt is a very family-friendly, kid-friendly event,\u201d Fales said.<\/p>\n
Money goes to support Land Conservancy, an organization that preserves open space and agricultural land in the area.<\/p>\n
Those older than 21 years old can enjoy free beer courtesy of Dolores River Brewery with the cost of entry.<\/p>\n
