Held a capacity of 150 cars. Land now used as a business park and storage facility. The park drive is called Summit Place. Opened in 1955 and closed in the late-1970’s/early-1980’s. They had a playground behind the snack bar and there were painted, wooden Warner Brothers cartoon characters on the playground in the early-1960’s.
