The first program at the Motorena, on Oct. 1, 1948, was a Bugs Bunny cartoon, the Technicolor two-reeler “Power Behind the Nation,” and the Technicolor feature, “I Wonder Who’s Kissing Her Now,” starring June Haver and Mark Stevens.
Motion Picture Herald, Sept. 25, 1948: “Irving Gilman is building a 500-car, $75,000 drive-in at Boulder, Colo.”

Was once part of the Highland Theatres chain. Should be added to the list of previous operators.
