On July 5, 168 enthusiastic guests came out the Roxy Theatre in Neepawa for a special Ladies’ Night showing of Ocean’s 8.
Thanks to supportive local businesses, volunteers and Roxy board members, the scene was set with prize draws and a decorate-you-own-cupcake bar. One guest even came in costume to win the movie’s poster, a new contest being held at certain shows. Attracting a wide range of ages, the positive response has left the board optimistic about reviving these special events.
Later that week, the Roxy was also informed that they will be receiving a Designated Heritage Building grant from the provincial government. This grant brings the registered charity $5,000 away from their fundraising goal in order to complete phase 2 of the theatre’s brick repointing project.
