The Windom Theater is once again getting ready for a favorite community tradition the annual Windom Area Merchant Matinees. The event offers free holiday movies for local families on Saturdays and Sundays at 1 p.m., running for four weeks from Thanksgiving weekend through December 20th.
The Theater Board is inviting area businesses to help sponsor the matinees. Merchant sponsorships are tax-deductible and available at several levels — $100, $150, and $250 with sponsors recognized on posters and mentioned on KDOM Radio. Interested Businesses are asked to send their donations and checks made payable to the Windom Theater and mailed to 926 4th Avenue, Windom, Minnesota, 56101. The Windom Theater board says these donations help keep the theater a positive part of the community and for some kids, the free merchant matinees are the only movies they’ll see in the theater all year. For more information, you can contact Buckwheat Johnson, Tanya Smith, or Elaine Tasler with the Windom Theater Board.
