Glad you enjoyed the photos!Denisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13005560908431014354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203847420215784358.post-42851016288834291552023-07-20T10:43:27.102-04:002023-07-20T10:43:27.102-04:00I moved to Clarksburg in 1985 and worked at Pressl...I moved to Clarksburg in 1985 and worked at Pressley Ridge School, so I drove past Skyline every day. I went to one movie there that summer (not knowing it was going to close). I have so much to share!<br />I know where the old sign for the Drive In is located. The new owner of the property had a new sign made and posted in the same location. I will get photos for you. <br />I am a volunteer for the Clarksburg History Museum (check out our Facebook page and our website). We have a Clarksburg Theaters Display and are in the process of creating a radio and television stations display.<br />The history of the Skyline would be a great addition. (We are all volunteers and have a very tight and limited budget, but we would love a tax-deductible donation of copies of those photos! I am going to share your blog to some Clarksburg Facebook pages. You may get some "hits" on identifying those people. <br />Oh! I just learned that Sam Caputo, Jr. still owns the Skyline. He has a business called A-1 Exterminating. I will stop in to tell him about your blog.Buffalo Galhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16503734979910692398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5203847420215784358.post-61264670565925639912023-03-10T13:12:29.841-05:002023-03-10T13:12:29.841-05:00Hope you enjoyed the pictures!

They lived in the house on the property.
