I worked the Telephone Twin on Grand Opening Day.I was one of the last employees to work at the Winkler Drive Inn Theatre when it closed.The concession area and the projectors were state of the art when it made its debut. After leaving the Telephone Rd Twin I worked at the HiNabor on Makaywa Rd.There was and Old Abandoned Mansion right next to the HiNabor that was believed to be haunted.FYI.You could use your car radio at the Telephone Rd.to listen to the movie.This is how stste of the art Telephone Rd. theatre was.

I worked at the Winkler Drive Inn 1966. I worked Concession and repaired the speakers at the theatre. I was 14 years old.I remembered when they closed it down and turned it into a car lot.I lived right across the street at the Winkler Dr. Apartments.After concession closed down I set in a truck at the back of the theatre to catch people sneeking through the exit.That was a lot of fun.Beach party movies were a hit then.Elvis movies were a real big hit then.This was my first real job growning up.
