The Rivoli

This is ours. It's owned by a community group that raised money and refurbished it. It's all run by volunteers. I think there is only one paid employee.

You’re lucky to have The Rivoli. Most of the historic theaters were torn down in the name of progress. I have fond memories of several that are long gone.

The Roxy Theater that we go to is owned by one man. When he retires, I wonder what will happen to the theater. It’s fun going there because the owner has kept the original decor.

We try to go there when we can to help keep the place going. I’m planning to see “Secretariat” there.
