The 64 Drive-In was opened around 1950 when it was operated by W.L. Spicer. By 1953 it was operated by Henley Smith. By 1955 it was operated by Gordon Hutchins. It was demolished and a movie theatre named 64 Movies Valley Cinema was built on the site in 1984. Later known as the Valley Cinema Trio, it closed in 2009 and is now a church.
