The City of Pana is gearing up for warmer weather and aiming to provide fun activities for everyone.  A new theater along with a refurbished plaza in the works are expected to provide just that.  The city is also getting ready to open its public pool for the summer.  Kim Toberman, the Pana City Clerk, says there are several steps still to go before the pool opens in June. 

The city now owns the Roseland Theater on South Locust Street, which is just off East 2nd Street.  Toberman says the theater needs repairs, but there is progress in making them happen. 

The city has a working relationship with the Pana Business Alliance, which helps promote events at local establishments.  One such event is happening this weekend at the Roseland Theatre.  There is a potential opportunity for kids to see the new Minecraft film for free with a paying adult.

Pana is also moving forward with constructing the People’s Plaza.  The future outdoor space is going through reviews before work can begin. 

More information on these plans and developments can be found at www.cityofpana.org.
