Main Street: Cool Air and Hot Deals

Teens need a place to hang out. Or places, preferably. In Park City "the place" seems to be Redstone. With its mix of fast food and fine dining, of movie theaters and toy stores, it seems to be the favorite place for teens to go and stand around instead of actually using any of the fun attractions. However, Redstone isn't the only cool spot in Park City. Main Street is often overlooked when it comes to places to "hang out". It has a bit of a bad reputation of being full of tourist shops and overpriced clothing, but Main Street has much more to offer than most kids realize. Besides the tourist traps, it also has unique art exhibits, some really good food (i.e Cows), and some killer deals. Park City Film Series' "Dinner and a Movie" deal is one of the best. Go to one of the many restaurants that offers it, great places like Main Street Pizza and Noodle and the Silver Star Cafe, and pick from a special menu. After a delicious dinner, cool off in the wonderfully crisp air as you stroll down to the Jim Santy Auditorium, where you will be treated to one of the many excellent movies they show there as part of the Park City Film Series. Whether a romantic dinner and intimate movie with a date, or just as some quality food and a flick with friends, you're in for a good time, and cheap too. $30 will get you spaghetti for two at Main Street Pizza and Noodle and two movie tickets. Not a bad price for a memorable night on the town. The next time instead of "hanging out" you feel like you actually want to do something and have a good time, remember to incluide Main Street in your list.
