Summer, 2009
The following dates are not set in stone. This is a tentative list of titles and is weather permitting. The list is subject to change.
Be advised, many people equate Drive-In Movies with “family friendly”. If you’re unfamiliar with any of these titles, it is safe to assume that they are, under no circumstances, appropriate for children. We’ll hardly be enforcing age restrictions based on the MPAA rating, but you probably shouldn’t bring your kids to these.
All shows begin at 9:00pm on their appointed dates. Get there early to get a good spot and find the frequency on the FM band where you can hear the audio.
