1st feature - Moana
2nd feature - Mario Galaxy

Sorry I couldn’t update the Facebook sooner. I am super super super busy handling all the other things I have to do at my full-time job but our Internet is down there so this is the best I can do.

I’ve been trying really hard to catch up on everything outside of the Drive-In so consider this the official post. I thought it got posted earlier this week but I guess it didn’t. So I’m sorry this is the best I can do given my time and resources right now.

The same goes for the reservations online. They were up Monday, but I haven’t been able to add Mario to the “Now Showing” section thanks to internet issues that I have been stuck troubleshooting all week. You can still reserve your spot and when I get a chance, I’ll add Mario to it, but it doesn’t change the price or anything. Just know that Mario is the second feature.

It was another successful swap meet but it will be our last one we do on a Saturday morning after our movie schedule changes. That is because after Labor Day we will no longer be showing movies on Friday nights once high school football begins so we are closing out the year with swaps meets on the 2nd Sunday of every month.

I apologize I didn’t post pics of their items sooner but for once I didn’t have to. We had such a steady flow of customers that it didn’t feel as necessary to rally the troops as it has in the past. Plus the heat really took it out of me and working so late the night before did too.

Our next swap meet will be from 2pm-6pm (after church) on Sunday, August 9th with a pre-game vendor appreciation pot luck. This is a chance for anyone who has joined us in the past to come showcase any of their favorite foods so keep an eye out for the event details along with an email for an RSVP to see who all may be bringing something. All are welcome tho!

Thanks again for everyone who came out and a special pat on the back for those who stuck it out all day! That heat hurt me but it gave me another good reason to move the rest of them to Sunday afternoon.

Here is a highlight of all the booths along with some of my favorite items that I came home with! I love our community and can’t wait til the next time we see you at the drive-in!

Volume 6 of Swappers & Shoppers Newsletter is finally ready. Time to see what all the buzz is about…

Listen up you filthy animals!

Here’s your stinkin 24-Hour Notice about our SWAP MEET TOMORROW! 🙃
No seriously! July 11th is our second Saturday Swap-N-Shop

🐥Calling all stinky animals!🐥

I caught wind that we might even have some pigs, goats and hay this time! I believe I heard Avon will be there… then of course there’s our lifesaver KJ’s Lemonades & Fizz slangin dranks to keep us refreshed in case it gets too hot 🥵

So who here wants to take bets on us actually not closing by noon and making it long enough for the sleepy heads to wake up and join for once? Well I got $250 on my cooling tent and I’ll even top it up with a big jug of free ice water 😅

BTW I have a confession… I absolutely hated every minute of the four weeks it took to make that newsletter so you better enjoy it 😆 I promise I’ll never dog someone for using Ai to make a poster ever again 🤓 doesn’t mean I’ll use it but I’ll stop making fun of them 🥸

And YES it is movie night all weekend long! I’ve been waiting all summer for Mario Galaxy. Maybe I’ll actually sit down and watch it later (but it’s the second feature and I’m exhausted so probably not)🕹️

If you come out tomorrow, be sure to stay hydrated and take it easy. I’d say stay away from salty foods but I hear people really like our popcorn 🍿 maybe I’ll charge extra to have it for the swap meet 😝

Either way, I am super excited about tomorrow and I hope you are too!

7am-3ish (depends on how hot it is)
🐷FREE TO ENTER 🐷 $10 TO SELL🐷

I have already established that it will be a long day for me but the more stinky animals that get corralled there, the better I will feel about it! 🐔

See you at the drive-in!
