The Oldest Drive-In Theater Still In Operation In New York State
Even though there's a lot of fewer drive-in theaters left the country, many have managed to hang on after all these years.

Now that Summer is in full swing and there's plenty of time left in the season, this particular drive-in is still going strong and celebrating over 75 years in business!
Just a short drive from The Berkshires over the border in North Hoosick Falls, New York. My favorite and actually first ever drive-in I've been to has been serving area patrons since 1948! I remember my parents first taking me here back in 2004 when Shrek 2 was a hit at the box office. Crazy how that was 20 years ago!
According to their website, a handful of movies are announced on a weekly basis as they try their best to show the latest films every week. Since Hathaway's is a "twin" drive-in theater, that gives patrons more viewing options for what's being shown on a given night.

They are also always looking for help who is reliable and highly interested in working in a movie theatre business and to apply on their website. As running such busy is not something you can do solo.
