On the community page, the picture labeled Grand Rapids1 is in the 2nd volume of Pictorial History of Michigan, but it's in black & white (with green tint) where it's in colour here.

And my mom, who was born in 1930 in Flint, practically grew up in some of the theaters you highlight. For any former or current Flint residents out there, check out www.flintexpats.blogspot.com.

CommmentI was thinking it would be a neat addition to add schools to the site. I went to Saint John Lutheran from grade 1 to 8, then to Rochester Adams before fleeing to Detroit & then California. Oakland University was right down the road from where I lived. Before Crittenton Hospital was built, it was surrounded by farmland, the land donated eventually by the Dodge family(Ithink) that built Meadowbrook Hall Mansion. All in little Rochester.

CommmentJust found your info on the Blue Sky Drivein Theater! All this time I thought it was the Blue Star, obviously being a kid then, & it had the Blue Stars on the sign!I could have sworn there was a shooting star over the sign, bit it must have been at the drivein where we got foot longs before the show...it was in Pontiac tho. Looking at the swing sets in front of the screen, They were HUGE, and one time I jumped off at the top of a swing and almost knocked myself out! OUCH! I can't imagine swings that dangerous anywhere now either. You can see how big they were by comparing them to the hug screen, even the dimensions of the words & stars on the neon sign amaze me. How fun.It was always a kick to be driving at night on a highway & catch sight of a movie playing on one of those screens too...

CommmentI was born in the Soo (Cartwright clan) and left when I was in 2nd grade. I was back 'up home' several times in my youth. The last time I was up there was November of '78 before I got transferred (USN) to the Middle East. Seems like every time I go to the Soo I meet some distant relative. We used to go down to the Soo Locks when my uncles ships would come through and they would toss their money to my grandmother to put in the bank. Can't get that close anymore. I took my wife on a ride through the locks on our honeymoon. She had a blast.

I was always so proud of our Memorial Day Parade. I also attended Decker Elementary & Walled Lake Baptist Church.

CommmentGreat Site! My siblings and I are working on a family heritage book . My aunt informed me that my grandfather, Hector Drouillard (died 1947), in addition to being a window dresser/decorator for Finsterwald's, also assisted in decorating the interior of the Riviera Theater in Detroit. I found your site while looking for info about the theater! You provide great info for us to add to our family history book and my kids were excited to learn about and see what movie theaters used to be like. I'm looking forward to searching for all types of other info and memories. My parents started their family in Dearborn before moving to Farmington where I was born in '63. Our family moved to Denver, NC in '75, but my 4 oldest siblings graduated from Farmington High and I see lots of landmarks and hangouts that they've spoken about over the years. Lived in Farmington Meadows, so if anyone sees this site and remembers any of the Steele kids on Robinwood Rd. send me an email. Love to hear from you or I can pass a message on to Lori, Carolyn, Greg, Debbie or Kim.

CommmentWondering if you might want to get your website added as a link to www.absolutemichigan.com , this is a pretty informative site, but not nearly as FUN and exciting as yours! I tell people about it all of the time. Loved the "new" photos of the "old" Wonderland Mall, the ones from some type of a brochure. I remember my mother (who never learnded to drive) taking me - just the two of us - on a bus to Wonderland for one of my birthdays. We had lunch and I think I got some type of hair cut at the beauty shop at Wards. It was a BIG deal as my mom had five other kids at home. Spending time with just one, was an extreme rarity. My favorite memory of Wonderland Mall was the open-air courtyard at Christmas time. If you were lucky, a light snow might mix with the carols played over the speaker system. Shopping on a babysitter's budget was easy with a Kresege, Woodworth and Cunningham Drug Store to pick from. After high school, I worked at Federal's. I still live in the area, close enough to watch the final demo last summer. I couldn't help wondering if the beautiful mosaic wall located somewhere on the western portion of the mall, could not have been saved and used to enhance a park or someplace of signifigance within Livonia. My daughter, who also enjoyed the photos of the empty mall, said she'd like to see some snapshots inside the mall, BEFORE the last food court was constructed- she said the most recent one did not compare with the previous food court that included more food vendors, such as Taco Bell and Sander's.

Photos are available by visiting the Battle Creek Public School website and clicking on their outdoor education center. www.battlecreekschools.org As a sixth grade student in the Westland portion of the Livonia Public School District we were fortunate to attend a week of camp in the early/wintery part of 1968. It was a fun experience and the photos brought back some great memories. The campground facilities are still available to rent for group retreats or family reunions.

CommmentAh, memories..Since we lived a mile away, my parents took us kids to the Bel Air every friday night..Of course, that was back in the days when cars still had spotlights attached, and the adults would have spotlight wars on the screen before the movie started, while us kids rode the train, and on several special occasions, pony rides..Thanks for some great and long forgotten memories.

CommmentWonderful site! I ran across this when I was doing some research on an old vacation spot named Johnson's Rustic Resort. I have many photos of the lodge and have been in contact with the current owner, but I am trying to find photos of the rest of the resort I used to vacation at as a child. If anybody knows where to find this info, please let me know. I think I will have some photos to share as well. Thanks for taking me back!

CommmentThanks for the great memories. Zilwaukee SpeedWay and my brother-in-law Bob Rabie. The track drew his name or his seat number to drive in a race. He won. Ha Ha. Never forget it.

CommmentWOW, a fantastic site that I just found. Grew up in Adrian in the 50's and would love to hear from anyone who was there. Your photos of "4 Corners" which in the center of downtown Adrian brought back many memories. Didn't get to visit Mackinac Island until a couple years ago. Agree it would be nice to have old homes section--have some pics of grandparents house from the 40's. Oh, will send donation to you later today. Thanks. Jim.
