I reported in the fall of 2007 that the Cottage View Drive-In, one of two drive-in theaters in the Twin Cities area, would be closing and selling it's land to the highest bidder. Due to overwhelming support, much praise, and a bit of a backlash by the community on the sale of the land, I'm happy to report the Cottage View Drive-In will be open in 2008 for business. My circle of friends in the Cottage Grove area have been talking quite a bit about the drive in being open once again. We brought six or seven car loads of families several times last year and have plans already in the works for this summer.See what's playing at Cottage View Drive-In
The first showing is this Friday, April 18th. The theater will only be open on weekends until school is just about done for the year.
Lots of babies were made in drive-ins. They were famous for that in the midwest.
ReplyDeletewonderful that it will stay open. The sign alone is very neat. I used to work at a drive in when I was in high school, lots of memories.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the head's up; I'll have to take my grandkids there this season...as soon as it warms up!
ReplyDeleteThanks for visiting my 500th blog!
I haven't been to a drive-in for many many years. They were fun. Amazing in this day of dvd's they still exist.
ReplyDeleteThat's so cool. Our nearest drive-in is a four hour drive.
