STEAMBOAT SPRINGS Wildhorse 6 Stadium Cinemas General Manager Brent Almon is looking forward to being able to rehire his furloughed employees before the sole movie theater in Routt County reopens again, hopefully on Memorial Day weekend.
The theater that often provides the first job experience for a crew of as many as 20 teenagers and young adults has been closed since November 2020. The theater was hit with double trouble dealing with a pandemic as well as a burst water pipe due to a late winter cold snap that damaged flooring and some electrical wiring in the empty building.
