Good News from the Vacation Kingdom

There are a lot of publications, and a ton of history to sift through, when it comes to Walt Disney World. Everything from WD Eye and Imaginews, to EPCOT Center Construction Updates and Eyes & Ears, and the list goes on and on. Perhaps my favorite publication, however, is the guest facing paper known as The World News.

Forty years ago this week the Vacation Kingdom’s original water park, River Country, opened its gates to guests. In the July 1976 issue of The World News, guests were given a full, front page rundown of everything the Ol’ Swimmin’ Hole had to offer.

Check out the story for yourself and then let us know what was your favorite part of River Country?
