People all over the world love movies, but not everyone has an opportunity to view them under the stars and in the fresh air. We the people of Long Island have long since lost the many drive-in theaters we once loved, but we have an opportunity to bring one back. The old Rocky Point Drive-In theater sign still stands tall. And the land is just sitting and waiting to be refilled with the many patrons of old and new.
Therefor It is our mission to try and get the town to allow a reopening of the Rocky Point Drive-In Theater in Rocky Point, NY. For 22 long years now the land has sat, and no plans have been made to renovate, reconstruct or rebuild. Nor has any new development or shopping center been established. We are hoping through signatures and support we can motivate the town to reopen the theater to the general public once more, and give us back a great American past time.
This is the perfect time to resurrect the Rocky Point Drive-In. It gives our young people the opportunity to step back in time and enjoy the good times we had.

I would love to see the drive-in rebuilt.I remember going to the Sunrise drive-in,Valley Stream,NY in the 50's with my parents & later with my friends.I passed by Heritage Park in Mount Sinai last night and they were showing a movie on a large screen & the place was packed,SRO.It brought back wonderful memories.Years ago I would pass by the green sign for the RP drive-in on my way to pumpkin pick & thought it sad to see that sign just sitting there all by its lonesome.If I ever had a chance I'd restore it like Jim Carey did in "The Majestic".
