Fan Drive-In

The Fan Drive-In was opened on March 14, 1952 with Randolph Scott in “Canadian Pacific”. It was operated by Mrs Fanny Brackin. It was closed around 1963 or 1964. Now Love’s Travel Shop and Arby’s. All that’s left are some of the fences that bordered the theatre.

The drive-in stood derelict with the ramps, roads, base of marquee and brick wall remaining until 2015 when the site was redeveloped. Now an Arby’s and a Loves Gas station are on the site. Google maps hasn’t been updated and still shows the old abandoned site.

Opened on March 14, 1952 with “Canadian Pacific”. Also Mrs Brackin’s first name was Fannie, which I assume is where the drive-in name came from. Her husband, Walter Brackin died in 1947.
