Blue Fox Drive-In petitions to avoid becoming pandemic casualty

The Whidbey Island drive-in theater screened its last movie in March.

If it can’t open for business soon, the Blue Fox Drive-In may be closing its doors for good, according to the theater’s owner.

As a last-ditch effort to get Gov. Jay Inslee’s attention, owner Darrell Bratt started circulating a petition on Change.org. The petition seeks to allow drive-in movie theaters to operate while under COVID-19 restrictions.

The petition was launched on May 8. By this past Monday, it had obtained more than 50,000 signatures.

Bratt said he finds inconsistencies in the state’s plan.

“Drive-in spiritual services” and some outdoor recreation are allowed during phase one,” Bratt said.
