This historical marker sits near a bus stop and parking lot to Black Bear Restaurant on Moonlit Oaks Dr. The marker reads:

Pints of illicit spirits were obtained From the man in the parking lot with the Many-pocketed long black overcoat. In Those days, dancing was a major social and Entertainment event. World War II and post War lifestyle changes brought an end to the Grand age of open air dance pavilions, and The demise of Moonlit Oaks.

I located the ECV Chapter #73 website here. I could locate no other information regarding the history of this site nor any pictures. If/when I do find something, I'll definitely post it here.
