"OTB Retail Branches in the Finger Lakes, Central New York and Southern Tier regions will be reopening on Saturday, May 30, 2020.
Please note that all employees working with our branches will self check for symptoms, take their temperature before their shift and wear a mask. Anyone visiting an OTB Branch is required to wear a mask. There will be no tables or chairs or TVs on. Customers will be allowed to visit the branch to make their wagers and then must exit the building.
