The land has been cleared.

It was on Malone Road, just in from the northwest corner of Malone and North Main Street.

This drive in was owned by Kate (Dunn) Peters, sister to C. S. Dunn. She also owned the downtown Blakely theatre. I retrieved some old Montay speakers from this drive in and I believe these speakers were made by a company located in Cuthbert Georgia. I had never heard of them before. I also retrieve the benchs that were located in front of the concession building, rebuilt them and installed them in the Cairo Drive In.
