Ritz Cinemas
West Valley City, Utah
Carmike Cinemas opened the Ritz Cinemas and Hollywood Connection Family Entertainment Center on 20 November 1998. The 165,000-square-foot complex was part of an “entertainment mecca” which included the Hale Centre Theatre and the West Valley City E Center (now the Maverick Center.) In addition to 15 movie screens, the Hollywood Connection included a carousel, roller coaster, bumper cars, miniature golf, skating, arcade, restaurant, ice cream parlor, and laser tag. Carmike's goal was to have enough entertainment under one roof so families wouldn't have to go around town.

Gem Theatre Will Move
Box Elder News, 3 October 1912, page 4
Sunday Mgr. C. O. Anderson of the Gem Theatre will remove the apparatus from the present location to the Widerborg Block on Main Street, between Forest and First South. The move is made necessary because of the remodeling being done by Mr. H. N. Bowring in erecting a new theatre. Mr. Anderson expects to have everything in running order by Monday evening so that his patrons need not miss a night.
