First Three Titles Announced for Centerfield Cinema at Ogren Park
We would all like to hit the reset button on 2020 and just wipe it from memory. As we made our way through shutdowns, cancellations, and postponements - one event that helped Missoula have a little bit of hope through the pandemic was Centerfield Cinema at Ogren Park. There wasn t much happening around town so an actual reason to gather and have something to look forward to was welcomed by many - even with the social distancing measures that had to be enforced. It was pretty awesome to hear that the Roxy Theater and the Missoula PaddleHeads would once again be teaming up to offer movie nights this summer.

Broome County Executive Jason Garnar said he had concerns about a possible lowering of the amount of revenues counties would get from casinos but says he has since heard from Assemblywoman Donna Lupardo that there are provisions to keep the County from taking a revenue hit from reduced taxes on casinos like Tioga Downs. The budget deal had called for a chance for casinos to cut their state tax rate from 37 to as low as 30 percent. Prior to the pandemic shutting down Tioga Downs and other casinos and race tracks like it, Broome County had been getting about $4-million a year in revenue from the business.
