The CCC Auto Drive-In was run by the Rainbow Theaters chain in the 70’s. I’m not sure when it opened or closed, but at some point in the 70’s, a second screen was added. Apparently, it was demolished and a shopping center now occupies the site.

CCC stood for Cleveland-Columbus-Cincinnati, the “3-C Highway” which this drive-in was located on.

Attended this drive in a couple of times, remember always seeing bumper stickers and signs for Christian Free Drive In associated with CCC.

Is Christian Free Drive-in still operating? Someone should add it to CinemaTreasures.

Car capacity in 1975 was 400. In 1980 the car capacity is listed as 500. The name of the circuit in 1980 was Rainbow Entertainment.

Yes, the car capacity in 1956 was 400 and it was owned in the late 50’s by Frank Yassenoff.

Yassenoff owned several Drive ins in Columbus. WEST FIFTH AUTO, EAST SIDE DRIVE IN and Milton Yassenoff owned the SOUTH HI DRIVE IN in that city in 1956.
