Canyon Drive-In

Launched as the Auto View Drive-In Theatre on May 29, 1949 with the film, “Scudda Ho, Scudda Hay" by operator George Craghead. That name was changed later that summer to the Auto Vu Drive-In Theatre. When the theatre opened for the 1959 season, it had changed to the Canyon Auto-Vu Theatre. In 1961, the theatre was simply the Canyon Drive-In Theatre. The theatre was closed following the 1963 season as competition from the Big See appears to have been a challenge.
