DALLAS – The Army & Air Force Exchange Service and The Walt Disney Studios invite military families to an at-home movie night with a free online screening of “Incredibles 2,” beginning Oct. 23.
The military-exclusive screening is one of many family-friendly online activities offered as part of the Exchange and Disney’s Operation Fun campaign at ShopMyExchange.com/XKids, part of the Exchange’s community Hub.
“The Exchange’s customers are heroes, so ‘Incredibles 2’ is a fitting choice for military families,” said Air Force Chief Master Sgt. Kevin Osby, Exchange senior enlisted advisor. “Much like the characters in the film, military families are stronger when they join together—that’s why we wanted to give them an opportunity to do so in the comfort of their own homes.”
The screening will be available to all authorized shoppers with a ShopMyExchange.com account for 48 hours starting at 3 p.m. Central time Oct. 23 at the XKids Hub, though the number of viewers who can tune in at once is limited.
Families can also log onto the XKids Hub weekly for new kid-friendly activities including interactive videos, Disney-themed activity sheets, games and more. Highlights for October include special Halloween-themed activities and the Oct. 23 launch of a video series featuring the XKids sharing their top toy picks of the season.
Online activities and live video events will continue at the XKids Hub through the end of the year: On Thanksgiving, the Exchange and Disney will offer a free online screening of “Frozen 2,” and a Disney Jr. interactive video activity night is scheduled for Dec. 12.
Families can visit ShopMyExchange.com/XKids to access everything Operation Fun has to offer, including a calendar of events. They can also follow the Exchange on http://www.facebook.com/ShopMyExchange to get all the latest on Operation Fun activities delivered straight to their timeline.
Facebook-friendly version: Military families can tune in to the Army & Air Force Exchange Service’s XKids Community Hub for a free online screening of “Incredibles 2” on Oct. 23. Read more: https://wp.me/p9Q7PG-1vV.
