The Skyway Drive-In was operated by J.D. Brown in 1955. All that remained of this theatre was the metal frame that held the screen. That had been removed by 2016 and housing has been built on the site.

You know i am not trying to be a “know it all”.
Any idea where on Bemiss this theater is located? I Street Viewed the whole street from Valdosta to Moody AFB and I didn’t see anything that looked like a theater. There’s a very good chance I missed it, and I’ll try again, but…
Nevermind. Looks like it would’ve been at about 4273 Bemiss.

The above address will map accurately to the location of the drive-in.
Here is a 1970 aerial photo of the drive-in, courtesy of Earth Explorer and USGS.
Another three headed monster puzzle. I found aerial photos for three different drive-ins located in Valdosta.

Have names for two of them, Skyway Drive-In (N Ashley) and Martin Drive-in (Bemiss Rd) but no name for the N Forrest St location.
Does anyone have a drive-in listing for Valdosta which isn’t on CT yet?
Forest Drive-In for the Forest St. one.
The picture above is the location of the Sky Way Drive in, of Bemiss road.. not Martin Drive in
Even the screen’s skeleton is gone now; a new housing project has occupied the site since around 2016.
The Sky Way Drive-In opened on March 20th, 1953. Grand opening ad posted.
