The Christian Drive-In was located towards the SE end of the fairgrounds.

The screen is visible in the 1954 and 1957 aerial photos and faced NW. Today, the screen location would place it next to a transmission tower and building which did not exist at that time.

It should be noted that the Jaycee entrance did not exist at the time the drive-in was operating. The original entrance was at Lake Lamond Road and Tex Pack Street.

In addition, the 1957 aerial photo shows the projection booth was removed.

Today, the area is a parking lot with no trace of the drive-in remaining.
