Roxy Construction Update
Foundation repairs to the Roxy Theatre are moving forward. The afternoon of Friday Oct 20th saw the pouring of new concrete footings and the foundation on both the southwest and southeast corners where instabilities needed addressing. In addition, several holes in the concrete were filled in preparation for a shotcrete application, then water proofing to follow. Next a six-inch waterline will be installed and work will begin on the low sloped roof. Interior panel removal will occur later in the year.
To maintain forward motion in fundraising, Crowsnest Cando is actively campaigning for funds and the seat association sale is ongoing. For a donation of $500, $1,000, $1,500 or $2000 depending on seat location, the donor will have their name etched on a plaque on the seat of their choice and etched on a large wall recognition board. A specific seat can become available for a ticket purchase in advance of public sales for all live performances. These benefits are in the very near future and we ask the community to support this family centered initiative of creating the Crowsnest Roxy Performing Arts Center.
Also, A big shout out of thanks to Gerry and Chris Kramer for the donation of funds for two center row seats at the Roxy.

Etch your name in history
The Act III Together We Can Do It fundraiser for the Crowsnest Cultural and Recreation Society (Cando for short) is experiencing a series of successes in fundraising that started with a donation and early recognition from the Blairmore Lions Club. Scene Two of Act III is underway! This is an opportunity for families in the Crowsnest Pass and elsewhere to recognize passed loved ones and honor current family members through a Roxy Chair recognition campaign. The Four Seat recognition categories are priced at $500, $1000, $1500, and $2000 depending on location in the Roxy Theatre. Your name or in memoriam names will be etched on a Wall of Fame located in the Roxy Lounge area. All funds donated to the seat recognition campaign will receive a tax receipt. Funds will be used for chair, theatre and foyer atmosphere enhancements.
At this time both new and old seats are being considered in the seat renewal process.
Seat recognition donors will be placed on an early events notification list which will allow for the opportunity to purchase event tickets in advance of notification to the general public.
Construction activities will begin in May of this year and the completion of the process will depend on ongoing donations from the public, Corporations and Federal and Provincial grants that recognize the Historical designation of the Roxy.
This is a great opportunity to be recognized for contributing to a much-needed facility. Here is everyone’s chance to build something new and vibrant. The Roxy Performing Arts Centre will be a going concern. Become part of a Crowsnest Pass and this historic opportunity by etching your name in the Roxy and gaining recognition that will last!

Crowsnest Cando would like to extend a sincere thank you and appreciation to the Coleman Lions Club for their generous donation to the Revive The Roxy Project. Pictured above and receiving a cheque for $10,000.00 standing Left to Right are Tim Juhlin (Cando President) Jon Burgman, Leigh Aris, Brian Duff (Lions President), Kevin Michalsky and Pat Rypien.
The Lions have generously offered another $15,000.00 to be received over the next 3 years. These dollars will be used to assist with the restoration of the Roxy Theatre, starting with the stabilization of the building in the next month.
Again thank you to the Coleman Lions for believing in our project.
