Readers, share your memories of Belleville’s iconic Skyview Drive-In with the BND

St. Louis Public Radio

As some of you may know, Belleville’s Skyview Drive-In celebrates its 75th(!) anniversary this year.

To help mark the occasion, I’m working on a little history story about the place and would like some input.

I’m asking you, good readers, to share a memory or two of some good times at Skyview Drive-In.

What movie did you see with that special someone on a first date? Did you pile into the station wagon and head to the Skyview for family night outings? What are your favorite memories? These are the kinds of stories I want to know about.

Share your stories with me in an email to newsroom@bnd.com with the subject line: Skyview Memory. Please include your first and last name, current city of residence and a phone number where I can reach you (for my eyes only), in case I have a question or two.

Questions? Drop me a line at 618-239-2643.
