MY 61 DRIVE-IN THEATRE OPENED 60 YEARS AGO TODAY. HERE IS HOW THE
WOOD SCREEN LOOKED THAT DAY. A SMALL TORNADO BLEW IT DOWN
IN THE LATE SUMMER OF 1960. A STEEL SCREEN REPLACED IT AND WAS USED AT THE START OF THE 1961 SEASON. THAT SCREEN WAS TOPPLED IN THE SPRING OF 1995, AGAIN BY TORNADO LIKE WINDS. A MONTH LATER IT WAS REPLACED AND IS THE ONE USED TODAY. IN THE 50'S, THERE WERE OVER 50 DRIVE-IN THEATRES IN IOWA. TODAY, JUST 4. THE OTHER 3 ARE NEAR NEWTON, NEAR SPIRIT LAKE, AND AT THE EDGE OF GRANDVIEW. A NEW ONE OPENED IN CENTERVILLE TWO
YEARS AGO, BUT IT HAS CLOSED AND DID NOT OPEN THIS SEASON.
OUR ANNIVERSARY WEEK HAS BEEN GOOD AND FUN.....WE HAVE SOLD A RECORD
NUMBER OF HOTDOGS IN ONE WEEK. TWO MORE NIGHTS OF THE WEEK LONG
CELEBRATION.
