Description
Ruskin Drive-In Theater 2 by HH Photography of Florida.
The Ruskin Family Drive-In Theater is an iconic reminder of days gone by when Mom's and Dad's would pile the kids in the family car and head to the drive-in for an evening of inexpensive entertainment. The Ruskin Drive-In opened in 1952 with the film classic, Singing In The Rain, and is one of only 8 or 10 drive-ins still operating in the state of Florida today. During the heyday of the 1950's, Florida touted approximately 150 drive-ins throughout the state but time and progress have turned most of those big screens dark. Photographed in Ruskin, Florida.

Thanks Debra. I think most of us (of a certain age) remember going to the drive-in. :) Good times.

This is wonderful, Helen! I first saw The Beatles, "Help!" in a drive in. Wonderful days. L/F/tw
HH Photography of Florida replied:
Thanks, William. The drive-in was a frequent weekend treat when I was growing up. :)

Thanks for the memory Helen - I had almost forgotten the times my parents piled us into the family station wagon for a movie night at The Ruskin Drive-in.

So cool, Terry. We used to go to the Suburban in Bradenton ... a long, long time ago. :)
