Strand Theatre opened in 1921. floor. But wait — a non-profit organization has entered into the picture, calling itself the Morgan Hill Granada Preservation Society. The intention is to save and transform the Granada into a multi- purpose creative arts center. It reminds me of a heroic moment from a movie. These supporters have been very acti ve over the past year or so in working with the City of Morgan Hill in an effort to keep and develop the Granada as a prime downtown entertainment venue. So when you travel on Monterey and pass the Granada marquee, take note of what’s on the marquee and recall all the fond memories of the first (and second) Morgan Hill cinema that featured stars such as Errol Flynn, John Wayne, Cary Grant, Bette Davis, Bogie and Bacall, Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman. “The Granada is a keeper.” Proud to be your recycling and garbage service provider 1351 Pacheco Pass Hwy Gilroy, CA 95020 (408) 842-3358 Remember to Reduce, Reuse and Recycle!
