One movie theater has reopened ahead of those theater's July reopenings. Bassett Center's Premiere Cinemas reopened over Father's Day weekend. They said that they are "committed to being a shining example of how a business should reopen and follow all local, state and federal recommendations." On their website they outline the guidelines for their employees including hand washing, face coverings, and staying home if they feel sick.
