Len was always promoting Ogden from the airwaves of KLO Radio and did many community service projects. In the 1950’s Len was the MC for the Saturday morning kids shows at The Egyptian Theater. They had cartoons, serial movies and a bicycle give-a-way. We honor the memory of Len Allen with our children’s series held one Saturday a month during the school year. The children of Weber County are treated to an afternoon of a movie, a classic cartoon, a silent comedy accompanied by the Mighty Wurlitzer Organ, and prizes, including a bicycle. Children get in free with a top from any milk container and everyone goes home with a prize. |
It started in the summer of 2006 and was mostly funded by RAMP grants. This series honors the memory of Len Allen, formerly known as “Mr. Ogden”.
