Welcome to The Optimist Club of Arcola Web Page

We are re-opening the Mac on October 16 & 17!!

You will see some changes!
We are protecting you and our volunteers with a plexiglass shield and the volunteers will be using facemasks.
We encourage you to social distance in the lobby, and you may wear facemasks in the lobby.
There will be a hand sanitizing station in the lobby.
Every second row will be taped off.
Please leave at lease on empty seat between your group and the next group.
Because of local and provincial guidelines, our capacity is limited.

We will be sanitizing the seats, lobby area and washrooms after each movie.

And we will operate as long as we can get movies and as long as things remain as they are now.

Please watch this page and our facebook page for any changes!
