I am a fan of drive ins and a life long resident of Rockford Illinois and would love to see the Sunset drive in return and bring the big screen back to Rockford. We lost all of our drive ins, the Sunset, the Robin, the Belford, and my childhood favorite the Riverlane. We deserve one and Rockford needs to keep my money and many others here in town. Drive in movies have always been a family venture aside from this theaters tainted past and I am quite sure this is not the direction they are going. The drive ins i attend now are clean, non violent, and affordable family fun. Please don\'t let Rockford lose out on this Opportunity. Bring Back The Big Screen!!!!!
Thanks,
Alan M.
I really thought this might just be me shouting into the void about the Riverlane and how much I miss those warm nights but look at where we are now. It feels like the whole town is waking up to the fact that we deserve a place to park and watch a movie again (I honestly still have nightmares about the loss of the Sunset) and it is just wild to see this momentum building so fast.
