Islip Theater threatened with demolition

posted by Jay1 on July 17, 2009 at 7:45am

Here is the link to the online petition to save the Islip Theater...Please pass this around and have everyone sign it.

UPDATE ON ISLIP THEATER...
The plan that the current owner is actively seeking is to tear down this beautiful art deco theater to erect a daycare center in its place. There is no time to waste as the next meeting at Town Hall will have already determined the fate of the theater and the public will not be allowed to debate or discuss it any further once this next meeting takes place(currently on the calendar for 7/23/09).  This is why it is crucial for everyone to show their support now!!! 

I urge everyone to go to this website to sign the online petition to keep our Islip Theater standing for generations to come.
