A group of interested citizens met with Mayor Pam Hoots about continued improvements in downtown Columbia Tuesday. There is interest by many to see the Columbian Theatre restored and reopened. Conversations are in the works to see about getting the theater back into the hands of the donor, Dr Ben Arnold, who donated it to the school system. Pictured at Acapulco for a meeting about downtown buildings and development are: Mayor Pam Hoots, Darren Henson, Doug Beard, Linda Waggener, Charles Grimsley, and Ben Arnold.
