The Augusta Historic Theatre’s marquee has been dark for over a decade due to storm damage, but with help from the community tonight they are shining bright. Young and old gathered in awe as the marquee neon sign above the Augusta Historic Theatre glimmered bright. “It’s awesome. Actually, I kind of forgot what it looked like. It’s kind of a staple for the downtown area,” said parent Tanner Lee. The theater, which was built in 1935 had been without lights on the marquee for 11 years after a storm damaged it in 2010.
But with help from the community the town was able to restore it.Source: KAKE – News
