Center Theatre reinstating mask requirement

DOVER-FOXCROFT — The Center Theatre in Dover-Foxcroft announced that it will be reinstating a mask requirement for guests starting Monday, Aug. 16. Patrick Myers, the Theatre’s executive director, stated that the change in policy was based on Piscataquis county’s position on the Federal CDC’s Community Transmission map (https://covid.cdc.gov/covid-data-tracker/#county-view).

“Piscataquis has returned to, and stayed at, the highest transmission level,” Myers said, “and we felt it was time to reinstate a masking requirement until the county dropped to the Moderate level and stayed there for at least one week.” 

The Center Theatre ‘s policy states that: Masks are required in the lobby and in the theaters when guests are not eating or drinking. Guests at private rentals are required to wear masks in the lobby, but can remove them in their theater if they wish. We look forward to seeing your masks at the Theatre and thank you for doing your part to reduce transmission levels in our community.
