Robert Contreras was appointed
by the Education Service Center
Region 15’s board of directors
to fill the vacated position on
the board of directors in Place
1, which includes all the school
districts in Brown, Coleman, San
Saba and McCulloch Counties.
“I am honored to work with
Region 15.1 especially appreci-
ate the trust and confidence that
the board and Mr. Goen, Execu-
tive Director, have placed in me,” Contreras said. “Being
part of ensuring the finest education for our children
is certainly among the most important, significant and
meaningful responsibilities to which a citizen and par-
ent can be entrusted.”
The ESC Region 15 is dedicated to excellence in educa-
tion through leadership, partnership and they strive to
provide the best possible services to the districts to im-
prove education in the region. The ESC Region 15 is one
of the 20 service centers in the state of Texas and serves
public schools and charters in 18 counties — extending
more than 25,000 square miles.
Contreras also serves as the co-chairman of the Brown-
wood Community Resource Coordination Group (CRCG)
and vice-chair of the Brownwood Children’s Advisory
Committee. Contreras’ term runs through May 31, 2016.

is to make the transition as seamless
as possible. Customers will receive the
same great treatment as always and the
customer won’t notice too much of a
difference.
Nunley said the reason for the acqui-
sition was that Regal could see what a
valuable asset Hollywood Theaters had
been to the community and the great
communities they were serving.
Most of the changes will be behind
the scenes, but Regal Cinemas is adding
an extra incentive to encourage local
movie goers to get out and see their
new favorite films.
The new incentive is entitled the
Regal Crown Club, which consists of
issuing a card that is used every time
movie lovers visit the theater. The more
the card is used the more rewards are
earned, items such as free popcorn,
soft drinks, etc., are included in these
rewards.
More than seven million members
comprise the Regal Crown Club and pa-
trons at the Regal Cinema at Heartland
Mall will have the chance to join.
“We expect people in Brownwood and
Early will really enjoy the program as
well,” said Nunley.
Regal Entertainment operates 6,880
screens in 540 locations, making it the
largest in the U.S. exhibition circuit. The
acquirement of Hollywood Theaters
added 43 theaters with 513 screens in
16 U.S. states and three U.S. territories
into the Regal Entertainment fold.
