Turnage Theatre

I know we're not allowed to call it Little Washington, but the town of Washington.

Washington.And they had this lovely little theater called the Turnage Theater downtown that had a hole in the roof and was not functional, but there was a very active arts council down there.

They came to us for a community facilities loan and grant to start bringing more arts into their community.

So we were able to, with our particular instruments, I call them, is to get the Turnage Theater back to a place where it could support the community and the arts.

It could also drive business and tourism, and that's part of one of, one of the things that we do.

Additionally, on the education side, I'll roll out to Lees-McRae, way out west.
