Lorain Theatre to
Celebrate 10th Anniversary
October 9 – 10 – 11
It’s been 10 years since the Lorain opened its doors October 9, 1999, to crowds who were anxious to see Runaway Bride on the big screen. This weekend we’ll be hosting a big anniversary bash featuring the movie All About Steve.
Some highlights of the anniversary weekend include:
- Free popcorn and soda with paid admission
- Free Trolli gummi bears while supplies last
- Door prizes from Disney, Fox, MGM, Paramount, Sony and Universal
- Grand prize: a gas grill from Wilson True Value
It’s going to be a great weekend. Please plan to attend.

The South Dakota Public Utilities Commission has set up a Web site that has helpful information about the upcoming sale of Alltel to AT&T. Since most of us in the Armour area use Alltel as our cell phone carrier (there’s a tower just 3 miles north of town), I thought it would be helpful to provide a link to the site.
Frequently Asked Questions about Alltel and AT&T.

I’ve added a new page to the site. Please note the Alumni tab on the top menu bar.
For now, the page will be used to assist Armour students in their study of technology. Second through eighth graders are writing to Armour alumni to inquire about their use of technology. The alums are being asked to visit the Armour site and post comments about how they use technology in their daily lives. Please visit the page and watch for new comments as alumni receive letters and e-mails from students.
The letters have been sent and we’re receiving comments already! Please click on the alumni tab at the top of the page to see what people have to say.
