McHenry and 49er drive ins are opening in May.

There are a couple of drive ins in Southwestern Michigan I didn't include last year because information about what is playing online was difficult to find as they do not have a website. The only reason I excluded them was that I did not think they did double features when I first started this blog.

5-Mile Drive In, Dowagiac, MI (105 miles) $14 carload

Sunset Drive In, Hartford, MI (112 miles) $12 carload

I am going to try to include them because distance wise they are still in the maximum radius I defined so as to include the Midway. Why? Because the Midway does several dusk to dawn shows and special events every season. That being said, I have yet to visit this theater since becoming aware of them in 2007.
