                      CLASSIC CAR OWNERS

We had very very few pre-registrations for the Classic Car night at the
Midway Drive In, Friday July 18th.

Simply wanted to advise you that the turn out of Classic cars will no
doubt be very small.  We will follow through with the early gate opening
for the "Classics" and other details outlined in our previous email.
However I don't expect the commeradity of a gathering of classic car
owners that I had hoped for.

You will be welcome if you bring your car out, just did not want you to be
disappointed with the small numbers present.   --SEE BELOW...

July 18th will be the 60th Anniversary of the Midway Drive In Theatre

To mark these events check your adult ticket stubs all month long..if they
end in the number "75"  XXXX75  you win your choice of any one food item
on our menu....(I expect to see alot of FREE PIAZZAS going out the
door)..for the entire month of JULY...tickets must be redeemed the same
night they were purchased.

During the month of JULY we'll do the same except the lucky tickets will
end in "60"  XXXX60

CHILDREN's Tickets.. Pizza selection is limited to a small pizza.

Also making it debut  a limited edition 60th Anniversary Collectible Coin
minted and individually numbered.

They will be available by request in the Ticket Booth at a cost of $9.00
each, while supplies last.
The coin will have a redemption value of $10.00 in the concession on sales
of $10.00 or more, during the year 2008 ...effectively giving you a 10%
discount.   Our hope of course is that you'll decide to keep it as a
collectible or give it to some one to be used like a Gift Certificate.
Coins will lose their $10.00 cash value at the end of the 2008 season. All
profits recognized from the sale of these coins will be dedicated to the

    MIDWAY DRIVE IN THEATRE -60th ANNIVERSARY JULY 18th 2008
              CLASSIC CARS, Trucks PRE 1979 Wanted


I think it would be neat if we could have some old classic cars, trucks,
street rods (1978 or earlier) on the lot for our 60th....Would love to
make the Midway a Cruise spot on Friday July 18th.

 If you have a car you would like to bring out for the Movies, we'll open
the gates at 6PM for you to allow for some social time between car owners
and the opprotuinity to park as a group. My film contracts dictate no
discounted tickets so you would have to pay regular admission.  However I
will set aside at least (50) of our 60th Anniversary coins as a gift for
the Driver of the first (50) classic cars to show up that pre-registered
with us and a coupon for an 46 oz pop corn for each occupant of your car.
 These coins have a $10.00 redemption value in the Concession, however
i'm hoping you'll put them away with your treasures.

To register simply email me at john1 at midwaydrivein.com and tell me you
plan to bring your car out on July 18th and the following information.

Your Name
Contact phone number
email addy or mailing address
Make and year of car
License number

Understand this is just a night at the movies, not a car show

be advised you will need an FM radio to listen to the movies, bring a
portable if your car is not equipped.

If rain appears to be an issue call Theatre for a possible postponement to
Saturday Night July 19th

I don't know yet what the movies will be other than a Triple Feature and
Family Friendly.

PLEASE CUT AND PASTE THIS SECTION OR ENTIRE EMAIL AND SEND OUT TO OTHER
CLASSIC CAR OWNERS THAT YOU THINK MIGHT BE INTERESTED>
