McHenry Outdoor's drive to stay alive
McHENRY – A fundraising effort kicking off Oct. 5 will decide the future of a McHenry County staple.
The McHenry Outdoor Theater is looking to raise $130,000 to make a switch to equipment that will support a digital movie format instead of its current 35 mm set-up.
"Everything is going to go digital," said owner Scott Dehn. "The small independent theaters, you have to make the decision whether you can and should go digital or if you're going to go out of business, basically."
