The U.S. 23 Twin Drive-In has been open every summer since 1950, when initially it was a single screen. It is now the only drive-in in Mundy Township, a rarity in a country with only 800 remaining drive-ins.
In 2009, a third screen was added.

Description’s inaccurate now. This was always the only DI in Mundy Township. For a long time, Flint did have two DI’s (the Miracle Twin being the other) but it wasn’t even close nearby. 23 is now the only one left.
Cinema Treasures has uploaded a TV commercial for this drive in. http://cinematreasures.org/video/us-23-drive-in-theater

The caption says “…with only 800 remaining drive-ins…”. That may be down from 5,000 several decades ago but is up from 500 just a few years ago.
