Come as you are, but stay in your car… Great Memories from Drive-in Movie Theaters

Most drive-in theaters will not be able to afford the digital projectors required when new movies soon will cease to be released on film. Honda is sponsoring an initiative to help save drive-ins including donating projectors to the drive-ins that receive the five highest vote totals. Pink Cadillac Drive-In just outside Centerville is the nearest one participating.  Plus, it was in the neighborhood where I grew up.  To vote for the Pink Cadillac, visit www.projectdrivein.com/vote_98 and for  general information on Project Drive-in, go to www.projectdrivein.com.
