Norgan Theatre under budget
The Norgan Theatre continues to operate profitably, thanks to a small army of local volunteers.
Recreation services manager Matt Lubbers told council the 2014 numbers for the municipally-owned movie venue are in. They look good.
“It looks like the Norgan will finish under budget, which is great,” Lubbers told Minto town council at the Feb. 17 meeting.
“Again it’s a great testament to all the volunteers that make the weekend showing of films possible and affordable,” Lubbers added.
Lubbers said the Norgan volunteer committee is probably only about two years away from paying off a $180,000 loan provided by the town in 2007 to cover a portion of a restoration project required when the theatre faced closure due to structural issues.
