THE AWESOME DIXIE MARQUEE IS TRUELY A SIGHT TO BE SEEN, A GREAT SURVIVOR WITH A RECENTLY ADDED SECOND SCREEN SALVAGED FROM THE NEARBY ABANDONED SHERWOOD TWIN DRIVE-IN. THE DIXIE'S MANAGER WAS VERY FRIENDLY, A REAL DRIVE-IN GUY. HE GAVE US THE COMPLETE RUN-DOWN ON DAYTON AREA DRIVE-IN HISTORY. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED. |

DAYTON OHIO - AUGUST 2002 THE DIXIE'S NEWLY INSTALLED 2ND SCREEN WAS THE SHERWOODS REPLACEMENT MAIN SCREEN FOR THE ORIGINAL WOOD TOWER, WHICH BURNED IN 1978. SUPPOSEDLY THE REAR SCREEN IS STILL THERE, BUT THE AREA WAS VERY ROUGH-LOOKING SO WE DIDN'T STICK AROUND LONG ENOUGH TO FIND OUT. VERY CREEPY SITE. RIP SHERWOOD |
