Drive in

Note:  Our Last Night of Movies is Sunday September 10th, 2023

New for 2023 – A mix of First Run Movies and Classics.*
(In order to play a first run movie at the drive in, the movie studios require us to screen it for 2 weeks. We’re trying an experiment this year to see if there’s enough interest for a single first run movie for 2 weeks versus older movies that change nightly.)
