Center Theatre gives marquee to Foxcroft Academy grads  

DOVER-FOXCROFT — The Center Theatre announced that it will be giving one side of the marquee over to congratulatory messages to Foxcroft Academy graduating seniors starting on Sunday, June 21. One hour slots can be reserved from 8 a.m. to 6 p.m. Sunday the 21st through Friday the 26th. During that slot, the graduate’s name will be on the marquee celebrating the Class of 2020. Graduates are encouraged to come stand below the marquee for pictures and invite friends and family to watch via the Center Theatre webcam.

 

“Graduating from high school is one of those milestone moments for many people,” said Patrick Myers, the executive director of the Center Theatre. “With large gatherings likely to be prohibited, we wanted to do something to help the class of 2020 celebrate and to recognize their accomplishments. While it will be a busy week for marquee changes, it is the least we can do for the seniors.”
