Guest Mitch Hixon Fox Theatre Director
Sergeants Ward and Colby found some Ambucs sleeping, therefore the alertness level was close to zero, but they suddenly snapped into consciousness when the toilet arrived. Other Ambucs were identified and fined for AWOL at the State of the City event. By watching Brad Colby is making up stories in order to get more money in the toilet. ( Have you ever wondered if the newsletter is read by non-Ambucs, and what they might think of the phrase get more money in the toilet?) Randall, Dennis, and others coughed up money for some reason, but with Colby in charge, excuses are unacceptable.

Todays program, Mitch Hixon Fox Theatre Director presented his report. The Fox is a registered historic among many throughout the nation in the Art Deco period. The Fox is a 501c3 entity with three full time employees, six part-time employees, and 90 volunteers. After a $4.5 million remodel the Art Deco features have restored. The sound system in the Fox was troublesome, however many improvements in acoustics of the theater have resulted in a quality audio that is certain to attract more patrons. Mr. Hixon discussed how motion pictures have transformed from film to digital format. A movie is delivered on a flash drive giving the vendor control of showings.
