DOH! - No Movie with Voyageur Council

I just got this reply regarding the movie.

I am sorry. We only got the email on the 22nd and mine was in spam folder.
Next time we'll just "shoot from the hip" and ask tickets and then ask parents.

Hello, Unfortunately we have already reached our maximum numbers.  Thank you for your interest, please check out voy.scouts.ca for all the other upcoming Voyageur Council Events. Yours in Scouting,Nolan Smith

Can we reserve 25 seats?
At this point I have 15 confirmed with only about 50% response so I'd like to add some padding.
Thanks.
