Movie theatre changes hands

A deal this week assures that Oconee’s one and only movie theatre remains in the hands of an out of state group.  The North Carolina outfit Ruby Enterprises has sold the Seneca Cinemas to SC Premiere Realty, a Texas liability company.  A deed affidavit, filed with the office of the Oconee Register of Deeds, pegs the purchase price at $1.9 million.  Included in the sale are two parcels of property off By-Pass 123—-3.2 and 2.57 acres.
