It was a great place from the late 50’s to the early 80’s. I saw a Cival War flick there in the early 60’s with my parents and grandparents in our 58 Rambler. I saw Flipper with my friends and we were usually running around in the fields off the side of the parking lot where my best friend fell and cut his knee open on a broken bottle, cutting the night short. I was there at least once a week through the 70’s with my buddies drinking and smoking pot which we did in those days. Every car was partying or necking or both. In the 60’s it was a great place for families with a playground down front. In the 70’s it’s where you brought your first girl or as I said, party with your friends. It had a great concession stand and of course no radio tunable sound just the old speakers hanging on the pole next to your car. One night we drove out with two speakers still in the rear windows. They were rolled up tight so the glass didn’t beak, just the snapping of two safety wire ropes that were in the speaker cable to prevent theft. It was a great place from an era long since past, and how I miss it so.
