The CarMar Theatre was opened in 1941 and was owned by Hugh Gardner who also owned the Edgewood Drive-In. It was located on the East side of the square. The theatre seated 330. It was taken over by the Commonwealth Amusement Corp. circuit and they closed it on January 1, 1949 with Adolphe Menjou in “Road Show” & Bill Elliot in “Marshall of Reno”.
It became a fraternal lodge for the I.O.O.F until 1951. It was then converted into the Lindsay Department store.

Hugh Gardner opened the CarMar Theatre in 1941. Commonwealth Amusements Circuit took on the venue and closed it as the CarMar Theatre on January 1, 1949 with “Road Show,” “Marshall of Reno,” and the final chapter of “Dangers of the Canadian Mounted.” The Independent Order of the Odd Fellows (I.O.O.F.) used it as a fraternal lodge from 1949 to 1951 before moving to new digs. The Lindsay Department store then gave the building a transformation to a retail store.
