What do you do if it is raining or starts to rain?
If we are scheduled to be open that evening, we are Open. We do not issue rainchecks if we can show the scheduled program. The ONLY time the scheduled program would not be shown would be in the event of a power failure or very few patrons show up at the scheduled starting time. In that case suitable arrangements would be made.
