The final head count was aprox. 250 people. Being that we thought we might get those type of numbers after 4 or 5 weeks, we are now working with the Chevy staff to move the screen/location closer to the Chevy Centre to accomodate for an increasing crowd size. It was a great night. Please stop down Monday and check it out.

Question: When the movie starts is it dark?  Just curious. 
Being a member of  the "drive in" generation, it always annoyed me that the movies started before it became dark and the screen was washed out for awhile.

Yes, we list 9pm as the start time but we waited until it got dark (aprox 9:20pm). Of course, as the summer marches on, it will be dark by 9pm, therefore, we just list that time as the official start.
