Default Brownwood Bleachers / Fans

Have been very disappointed in how long it is taking to get the fans fixed at the entertainment area. 2 of the 4 have been broken (per the event team members) since the blue berry festival. It's not getting any cooler.

May want to contact someone of responsibility and help you eliminate your disappointment.

They're having trouble finding the chips for them.

OP, You might lobby for installing outside AC units similar to the ones I’ve seen elsewhere. While you’re asking, ask “a person with authority” to revisit opening the movie theater in Brownwood, “Don’t walk into deep water, take a big run and jump in”.

The current theater at Lake Sumter Landing (The Old Mill Theater) is reportedly operating at about 16% of capacity. Opening another theater doesn’t seem to make any economic sense at this time.

The whole movie industry is suffering since COVID. People apparently discovered movies on line. They don’t give the big studios the same returns.

Question is will the industry ever recover ?

Theater at LSL is almost always empty. We will be lucky if that stays open, the one in Brownwood is never reopening.

The Spinning Guy: Came for a lifestyle visit last year. In Brownwood we saw a guy with a long beard spinning around on the dance floor. Judging from your post it wasn't a one-time thing. We wondered why he didn't get dizzy and fall down.

The spinning guy with the hat that looks like the Man in the Yellow Hat's, hat is usually at Brownwood on Sunday or Saturday. Paul, the older fellow who does the one arm on the ground dance splits time among the 3 squares.
