Blue Fox Drive In | Working on Whidbey | Series

In the premiere episode of "Working on Whidbey," viewers are invited to step back in time and experience the magic of one of America's last great drive-in movie theaters. Nestled among the evergreen trees on Whidbey Island, this iconic establishment serves as a beacon of nostalgia and community spirit in an era dominated by modern cinemas.
Viewers are introduced to the passionate owners, the Bratt family who have preserved the drive-in tradition for generations.
The episode explores the challenges and joys of running a drive-in theater in the 21st century. The owners share their deep connection to Whidbey Island and how the Blue Fox has become an integral part of the community's fabric, and the communal atmosphere that permeates every movie night.

    Great film Nick, Tyler & Willie! We love the Blue Fox! In a time where SO many family activities are not affordable for working class families - kudos to the Blue Fox for being a destination for fantastic, affordable family fun.

    This is so awesome to see how far they have come and to hear the back stories about how they started and where they came from❤. I can remember the arcade being just enough fun waiting for and in-between movies but my all time favorite is the go carts and the food lol. Watching this brought me to tears and gave me goosebumps the whole time what an awesome and beautiful video!

    Great job Nick! My only issues with Blue Fox is Nick lets their family dog roam the grounds unleashed. He poops all over, harasses dogs that are leashed, and steals food from kids. I mentioned it to Nick at the bar and be just rolled his eyes.
