‘Bad News Bears’ Brings Good Cause to Bay TheaterClassic comedy screens Oct. 6 to raise funds for local kids’ sports and enrichment programs

A team of lovable losers could make local kids big winners when the classic baseball comedy, Bad News Bears, plays the Bay Theater.

Set for 5:30 p.m. Monday, Oct. 6, Bad News Bears, stars Tatum O’Neal, Walter Matthau and Vic Morrow; the screening is a benefit for the Community Foundation of Estero Bay, a non-profit foundation that awards scholarships to kids in the Estero Bay communities — Morro Bay, Los Osos and Cayucos — so they can participate in City and youth sports leagues, recreational and other enrichment programs.

The Foundation will have hot dogs and beer and wine for sale (for 21-older), and the Bay Theater’s concession stand will also be open and have plenty of warm popcorn. Doors open at 5 p.m. and the curtain goes up at 5:30 p.m.

Tickets are $15 a person and on sale now through the Community Foundation website at communityfoundationesterobay.org/events or at MY805Tix
