That summer is winding down makes us sigh gently, but here, a last hurrah: The Outrigger Reef on the Beach is screening the movie "The Ride" free on Thursday at 8:15 p.m., and it's poolside. (You can watch from the pool! Or not.) The award-winning movie is about a modern day surfer who wipes out and ends up on Waikiki Beach with Duke Kahanamoku (above) in 1911. More about this and other end-of-summer "feel good" events at On The Cheap!

Get tips on cheap or free family fun each Tuesday from Leslie Lang and Kris Bordessa, authors of our new blog, On the Cheap! Together they also write the blogs www.HonoluluOnTheCheap.com and www.BigIslandOnTheCheap.com
