WARREN, OH — Regular upgrades over the years have enabled the Elm Road Triple Drive-In to accomplish what not very many other drive-ins have been able to do: celebrate a diamond anniversary. The gates to the still family-owned outdoor theater opened in August of 1950.
The drive-in, which celebrates its 60th anniversary this year, is one of the last of its kind in the Mahoning Valley. There are fewer than 400 drive-ins left in the U.S., according to the United Drive-In Theater Owners Association.
The Elm Road Triple Drive-In has bucked the trend by modernizing its facilities to reflect the changing times, said theater manager Sheri Hocevar, daughter of owner Bob Hreno.

Oh my god what a beautiful marquee. Congratulations, and here’s to 60 more! Now I must plan a visit to the Elm Road on one of my next car trips to Ohio.
We visit relatives every year in Ohio and pass Warren. Will definitly have to check it out. And stay around for another 60.
