Humboldt, Iowa — As fundraising efforts for the Humboldt Movie theater continue, tonight marks the downtown fundraiser titled Hot Dogs for Humota.
Businesses downtown will be selling hot dogs for a free will donation with proceeds heading to keep the doors open at the Humota Theater.
The event will run from 4:00 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. this evening.
Last week the Humboldt City Council approved a $10,000 donation to the theater drawing from their hotel/motel tax.
Earlier this summer Fridley Theaters announced their intentions to relinquish their single theaters.
The Humota Theater was given a deadline of September 1st before needing to close doors.
