Have you checked out the Journal from the library on disc yet? They have some serious wayback machine going on in those archives.

You can find some pretty cool stuff, like the theatre's original 1937 opening announcement!

Specifically, a thank you to Felicia, Jenna, Jana, Mallory, Tessa, Cort, Hugh, Jacob, and Skyler! We *really* appreciate the help!!

And Beverly!! That was a yard sale for the books, I think. :)

It looks like John Munroe gets his building back! THANKS JOHN!!!

At 19 and already an Academy of Western Artists Female Performer of the Year, Kristyn Harris is noted for her singing, swing guitar playing, songwriting and yodeling. Hailing from from McKinney, Texas, she has been called the "Jewel of the West" (Les Buffham) and praised as "a true breath of fresh air with a timeless voice" (Stars2Come.com).

She brings to the stage a warm, genuine, and energetic personality, and never fails to gallop into the hearts of her audiences.

We hope you'll join us in giving her a warm Ritzville welcome this weekend!

As shared by Beverly Cobb in her letter to the editor in last week's Journal, an amazing group of volunteers and donors combined efforts and put on a yard sale on June 21st that brought in

--------------------------------- $8,245.50! ------------------------------------

That is a huge step closer to our projector goal, and we're working hard to find a vendor that will make every cent you have donated go as far as it can.

You've probably noticed the theatre is operational and showing recently and previously released DVDs thanks to Abbie Kubik's work to get licensing deals struck with studios. Some studios are happy to work with us, but only once we have a digital cinema projector in place.

We're so close!

Thanks to Kim Lantis for providing a great group shot! As Bev said "Yes we were very busy but not too busy to have a lot of fun and lots of laughs!"

If anyone wants to give a shout out to a volunteer, feel free. They deserve some recognition!
