The Kennebunk Drive-In began construction on September 13, 1949 after a permit was granted by Katherine Avery, owner of the town’s Anchor Theatre.
The Kennebunk Drive-In opened its gates on July 19, 1950 with Dennis Morgan in “One Sunday Afternoon” and Victor McLaughlin in “Lost Patrol” along with a cartoon and a newsreel.
The theater operated for 30 years and 10 days, closing its gates for the final time on September 29, 1980 with “When A Stranger Calls” and “Hollywood Knights” as its last films. It was demolished a few years later.
Demolished in the mid-1980s to make way for a neighborhood, one of the roads was dedicated to the old Sky Aire, which the theater probably opened in the early 1950s. A 1955 aerial shows that the theater was shown in its entirety.
The Twilight Drive-In closed in 1979 and was demolished immediately afterward. The Walmart that was located in the theater’s spot opened on July 25, 1980.
It originally had 67 cars when it opened in 1952, but it expanded to either 175 or 200 cars in 1956. A 1951 aerial view shows the theater under construction, and a 1955 aerial view shows the construction of the extended traces.
It appears that it opened in either 1953 or 1954, and was gone in the 1980s. Stacey Lane wasn’t even extended until after the demolition of the Skyline, as the closest address to the entrance was located on 6380 KY-38.
The Milo opened in 1950 and operated until sometime in the 1980s. It was still in operation as late as 1975.
Demolished in 1989 or 1990.

I’m pretty sure it did get some damage. Should we list it as closed due to Ian or should we keep it open?
Did the theater got destroyed by Ian a few days ago?
