I have recently returned to Las Vegas from Cairo after attending my best friends wedding in Kuttawa KY. I saw the Gem, and got a nice tour of Cairo. I know the inside of the theater is a disaster, but I have the construction education and experience. I really think if I can get possession of that old beauty, she can be restored. Im sure the flood of 2011 caused a bunch of damage, but history deserves to live on.

I know it is a lot more work than two people can handle, but there are good people in Cairo, decent hardworking people with pride.

Cairo could use a shot in the arm financially, no theater is going to do that, but by building up the historic area of downtown and attracting other businesses, like legitimate call centers, mom and pop retail outlets, this town could be a diamond just waiting a polishing.

Im not looking to get rich, I have had my moment in the sun, but this is the kind of project where I can give back.
