18 Fredericksburg Parent and Family • September 2019 Ask the Expert a sk t h e e x p e rt It's nice when things are simple, and when it comes to planning enter- tainment that's fun for the entire family, nothing could be simpler than Paragon Village, located next to the Spotsylvania Towne Centre. Paragon Village is your one-stop shop for hours of fun, with 12 audi- toriums featuring electric recliners, an attached 16-lane luxury bowling alley, arcade and restaurant. We are pleased to have District Manager John Andel from Paragon Village as our September Expert. Be sure to look for his Facebook Live interview on the Fredericksburg Parent and Family Facebook page later this month. Q: There are so many options for entertainment thise days —what makes a night out at the movies a great family activity, and what is Paragon's vision for what that experience should be like? "Family time" is so important, and sharing a passion for movies is an activity that can start young and continue through the teen years, and even adulthood! At Paragon Village, we hope that a family will come and see a movie, and then stay and have lunch or dinner while bowling a few games. That's the ultimate family-fun day. Q: Technology is ever-changing in the entertainment industry. Are there aspects of the Pargon Village experience that are especially state-of-the-art? All of our auditoriums feature reserved electric reclining seats with footrests, and our Extreme Theater has a 66-foot screen, laser projection, and Dolby Atmos sound. Our Extreme Theater is bigger and better than IMAX. INTERVIEWED BY EMILY FREEHLING
