About Greenville Drive-in
The pleasant park-like rural setting, ringed-in with glimpses of the Catskill Mountains on the horizon, provides not a hint of the life and death happenstance and struggle between light & dark for this Drive-in down through the years, in the decades since its big screen was first lit-up (back on June 18th, 1959). And yet each time that it has been pronounced dark, it's also been subsequently resurrected and the screen re-lit .. as if the light flickers, but stubbornly refuses to go out with fatal finality. True to form, The Greenville came back from the brink, and operated again through Season 2013 with a capacity for nearly 500 cars, and lighting its 80' wide solo screen with double-features. Then, once again, flickers, not flicks .. and Dark again in Season 2014. We're pleased to report that under entirely new Owner/Operators, the BIG screen in that big meadow-like venue was re-lit once again in July of 2015, and remains lit so expect to be served Cinema al fresco on the Weekends, into October (with a decidedly retro flavor). How far into October will depend on both the Weather and the Support that they receive in this neck of the Woods (we can always hope for decent Weather, but we do have a definite ability and choice to personally participate in the continuation and preservation of Drive-ins). Movie audio is being provided with a localized FM radio broadcast (88.7 FM). Admission: $5 per person for all ages 5 & UP (wee folk aged less than 5 years are admitted free, as are four-legged members of the family). Be aware: historically and despite the 'perfect' setting for it, Dogs were not being permitted at this Drive-in. Under the new operators, leashed and well behaved dogs are now being allowed on the premises.
