Summer BBQ Preview! Film Screen i ng! The Mountain View Historical Association invites our members and guests to join us for our annual Summer BBQ and Membership Meeting! The BBQ will take place at the historic Adobe Building on Sunday, August 28 from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. The menu will once again feature our version of the famous “Parisian Burger” served at Mountain View’s beloved Linda’s Drive-In (1956–1985). And yes, “super fries” will be served too. In addition to getting a tasty bite of Mountain View history, this year’s BBQ will also feature a special screening of the new documentary film, The Legacy of Arrow Development. The film chronicles the fascinating history of Arrow Development, a Mountain View company famous for building Disneyland’s earliest rides and designing the world’s first modern looping roller coaster. Those who attended last year’s BBQ may remember that portions of the documentary were actually filmed during the event, when the filmmakers interviewed our guest speaker, former Disney Imagineer Bob Gurr. We are excited to welcome back the film’s creators to introduce their documentary, and we look forward to sharing this unique piece of Mountain View history with you all. Due to seating capacity, inside seating for the film-screening is not guaranteed, so be sure to arrive early if you want to see the film!
