Lots of memories here, not only from all the times my family would go to the swap meet, but a good share of movies was seen, including “Clash Of The Titans” in 1981 on the Kam 2 screen.

I could swear i saw an HAWAII 5-0 episode where a car drives by a DRIVE-IN theatre. I wonder if this is the one?

The Kam swap meet is still a great deal, only 50 cents admission. The Drive In concession booths/restrooms are still there and in use.

Awesome Bryan!
I wanna add that The Kam Drive In opened up as a single but twined in the 70’s datewise I forget.
Unfortunately I have ONLY been there a couple of times for Jaws 2, Gray Lady Down, The Deep & The Exorcist. The absolute last movie for me was More American Graffiti.
As a kid I did partake at the playground facility they had. Goin to the snack bar before and during the movie was fun. Putting on that seemingly huge speaker box and trying to set it up against the AM radio to get the sound was sometimes a headache as I recall. I was playing around w/ the knobs and the lights went on & off and I freaked thinking it was me that was doing that….
As for the Kam Super Swap Meet I went there a lot too also. The admission was $.35! I’d go w/ my mom and we go up & down in the hot sun until we got tired. Crowds flocked to the swap ,eet like crazy……ahhhhhh the memories
