Halo 3 on a Movie Screen

Originally uploaded by shainelee.

I brought the kids to watch a Halo 3 competition at the historic Border Theatre (http://www.bordertheatre.com). The current tenants are working to keep the place open as a community center of sorts. So, one idea they had to generate some revenue is to hold a competition. If this first event goes well, they will have another competition next month for the rock star types. The cool thing about old movie theaters is that they have a stage up front for non-cinematic performances.

So, we are sitting here watching the competition on the big screen with the sound turned up. Next month should be cool to watch the players jamming out on stage. I think this is a worthwhile project. It keeps our youth engaged. I hope the theater is able to keep its doors open as a community center.

If you would like to rent an old movie theatre for an event, you should get in touch with them.
