New Freedom Heritage Museum, 22 Railroad Ave., New Freedom, has posted a field trip and an outdoor movie night, along with additional announcements.

The outdoor movie night will be held on Saturday, May 18, at dusk, approximately 7:30 p.m., at the Freedom Green Community Park, 22 Railroad Ave., New Freedom. The movie to be shown is "Flubber" starring Robin Williams. Admission is free.

A field trip to Rock Chapel Cemetery will take place on Thursday, June 13. Attendees should meet at the museum by the gazebo on the green at 6:30 p.m. Participants will need to carpool since there is limited parking at the cemetery.

During the event, Donna Peace will give a presentation about the history of Rock Chapel Cemetery, which is more than 200 years old. She will share about some of those interred at the cemetery.

The event is free and open to the public. Attendees should bring a lawn chair and water if they wish. They should wear good walking shoes, as the ground is rugged.

Community members are also invited to visit the Heritage Museum of New Freedom when it is open on the first Sunday of each month from 1 to 4 p.m.
