DISNEY PROJECTS DISNEY'S AMERICA A unique and historically detailed environment, DISNEY'S AMERICA is a celebration of the diversity of America, the plurality of this nation and the conflicts that have defined us as a people. Within the Park's nine "territories," guests may find themselves piloting a World War II fighter in a virtual reality experience, participating in a harrowing Lewis and Clark river expedition through a Native American Indian village, witnessing an authentic Civil War re-enactment, or meeting the nation's 41 presidents through the magic of Disney's Audio-Animatronics technology. While offering rides and attractions for which Disney is famous, DISNEY'S AMERICA will also be a venue for people of all ages -- especially American youth -- to debate the future of their nation and learn about the past by living its history. The approximately 100-acre park is scheduled to open in 1998 and will be sited on 3,000 acres of land in Virginia. The Walt Disney Company has options to purchase an ideal complement to visiting the museums, monuments and national treasures in Washington, D.C.
