CLERMONT COUNTY, Ohio (FOX19) - A local drive-in movie theater is helping high-school seniors have a memorable moment despite limitations imposed due to the coronavirus.
Starlite Drive-In in Amelia could have as many as 20 graduations in the next couple of months, according to the venue’s owners.
"I saw all these kids, even kids that worked at the drive-in, aren't going to have a graduation this year and I thought that maybe some schools were having that same problem and this would be a good solution," said Jeff Groner, who owns the theater with his parents.
According to Groner, the theater will be limiting the number of people using the bathrooms and will have Xs down for people who are in line in order to follow proper social distancing guidelines.

"Some of the schools wanted to just come in the evening and have a video playing with no interaction at all," said Groner. "Schools could have maybe a car drive by, have all the graduates drive by, maybe get out of the car."
According to Groner, they just started the process of speaking with school officials about the graduations, so only a few are officially on the schedule right now.
