Status: Closed around 1968. (Michigandriveins.com 9/98)
Update: 16mm film footage provided by Tom and Sue Magocs of the
Capri Drive-In reveal that this was a very basic drive-in, with no visible marquee
(it was most likely on the back of the screen) and a tiny snack bar/projection booth.
In fact based on the photos it is hard to believe there was a snack bar at all!
Another unique aspect of this location is the very close proximity to the road. (Waterwinterwonderland.com 11/19/03)
Update: I'm thinking this DI was destroyed by the April 11th, 1965 Palm Sunday tornados that hit close to Coldwater.
