Important Update on Saturday's Meeting about the Huntridge Theater
From one of the organizers, Josh Geidel:
Momentum continues to build. Opinion continues to solidify. Information continues to gather.
The unique opportunity we have to voice our community opinion on the significance of the Huntridge Theatre draws closer at hand.
Due to the volume of response to our Saturday's Meeting we have decided to change venues.
NEW LOCATION:
Saturday, March 8th, 5:00pm
Downtown Cocktail Room
111 Las Vegas Boulevard
Michael Cornthwaite, the ever generous proprietor of the Downtown Cocktail Room, will be kindly opening his doors to us. For this we are very grateful!
Pizza will still be on hand and continue to encourage folks to bring other dishes if they so choose. Non-host beverages will be available through the bar.
Also, TONIGHT we will be gathering at LoPro, Downtown Cocktail Room's singular networking mixer to discuss agenda and topics for Saturday's meeting. This is a great opportunity to familiarize yourself with one of Downtown Las Vegas's most significant weekly get togethers. Thursday evening 4:30pm on.
