For IMMEDIATE DISTRIBUTION:
The news is official – the Ownership group has indeed sold the building. You will notice in the news today Encore Vineyards has bought the old Penmar at 361 Martin Street; thereby, putting an end to the community theatre at this location. The Board of Directors is working very hard with other partners to still bring YOUR Community theatre to Penticton..
We are sadden, on many levels, that we could not raise the amount needed in time to secure the old Penmar location, The Board has worked tirelessly with you, our dedicated, members to try and bring this concept to fruition.
We want to think forward,….think positively and continue driving the need for the community theatre into Penticton and need your continued support as we move forward through this transition.
We are dedicated to continue to bring you news as it develops.
WE THANK YOU – our members, for standing behind us as we worked so hard to make this a reality and as we move into the future.
We will be issuing a press release later in the week – but wanted you to know first.
Please direct questions to info@penmar.ca – and let’s really work together in this time of change.
Warmest Regards,
Penmar Society Board of Directors.
