Starlite Drive-in

A good address for the Starlite would be 2367 Statesville Rd, North Wilkesboro, NC 28659, the address of the Family Dollar store that sits where the viewing field had been.

And here’s a note I just had to share, from Boxoffice, May 23, 1953:

“Chicken night, staged in conjunction with bingo, once a week, is a real box-office stimulant at the Starlite Drive-In, North Wilkesboro, N.C. The attraction was introduced recently by Manager Jack Pardue and gives patrons a chance to take home a fresh chicken for their Sunday dinner. Before showtime, the chickens are released in the play area. All the patrons have to do is catch them, kill them, roast them and dinner’s ready - come'n get it.”
