It's time to enroll in a Medicare
Part D prescription drug plan
Once again it is time to
enroll in a Medicare Part D
prescription drug plan. It is
also the time to evaluate
your current plan and, if
necessary, switch to a dif-
ferent plan that better meets
your needs. Open enroll-
ment began Nov. 15, and
continues through Dec. 31,
for coverage starting Jan. 1.
You could face a late enroll-
ment penalty if you wait
and enroll later than when
you were first eligible.
People are urged to make
their decision early in De-
cember to allow for the
timely processing of their
applications.
Millions of older Ameri-
cans and persons with dis-
abilities are now saving
with their Medicare drug
plans, but according to
AARP, even those with
drug coverage can find
ways to save even more.
Those with lower income
can qualify for extra help in
paying all or part of the
monthly plan premiums
and co-payments. If your
income is less than $14,700.
or $19,800 for a married
couple, you should apply
for Medicare's low income
subsidy by contacting the
Social Security Administra-
tion at 800-772-1213.
If you have high drug
costs, and you do not quali-
fy for Medicare's low in-
come subsidy, look into a
Medicare Part D plan that
provides drug coverage
that extends into the cover-
age gap. Once you reach the
catastrophic level, your
plan will pay about 95 per-
cent of the rest of your drug
costs for the year.

Keep the kitchen off-limits to children to lessen the
possibilities of kitchen mishaps. When cooking, turn
pot handles in so they don't extend over the edge of
the stove. Keep a fire extinguisher less than 10 feet
from the stove, on the exit side of the room.
Keep Thanksgiving decorations away from sources
of direct heat, such as fireplaces and space heaters.
NMake sure guest rooms are safe by testing all smoke
detectors, covering all electrical outlets and moving
all cribs, beds and furrunture away from windows and
window cords.

Guest Commentary
Some facts behind the Saddam verdict
By RB Davis
In my 25 years of US
Army active and reserve
service most of which was
spent as an Army lawyer I
developed friendships with
some of the lawyers who are
now serving as advisers and
trainers to the Iraqi judges
who are trying Saddam
Hussein. One of. them is
Professor Mike' Newton of
Vanderbilt University
School of Law, who is the
former Senior Advisor to
the United 'States Ambas-
sador for War Crimes.
What I have learned di-
rectly and indirectly from
them about the trial is worth
passing on in light of Sad-
dam's recent verdict and
death penalty for the deaths
of the 148 villagers of the
town of Dujail when it was
ordered destroyed by Sad-
dam. This article is designed
to briefly explain some of
the obvious differences be-
tween the Iraqi trial system
and ours.
First, Saddam was tried
under Iraqi statues that
were passed by the sover-
eign Iraqi legislative body.
Whether one agrees with
the US basis for the invasion
or not, the Iraqi government
established thereafter was
unanimously approved by

PROGlRAM IN THE AMOUNT OF $12.133 :,),, F
the Security Council of the
United Nations and from
that point on was recog-
nized as a sovereign nation.
Putting the invasion aside,
most accept that the Iraqi
government and its deci-
sions and wishes are within
the range of those that a sov-
ereign nation may make
and that, therefore, the
statutes under which Sad-
dam was tried were a valid
expression of the Iraqi gov-
ernment's desires.
Second, the Iraqis deter-
mined that they wanted to
try Saddam under Iraqi law
first and not allow him to be
tried under international
law in some international
venue, such as the Interna-
tional Criminal Court (if it
had jurisdiction, which it
would not). His crimes were
mostly local to Iraq and they
were brutal enough within
Iraqi law and culture to jus-
tify the death penalty,
which the new government
had expressly retained. That
was an Iraqi decision, not a
US decision. The Iraqi
statute does appear to com-
ply with international stan-
dards of due process and
fair trial, in that it tracks the
language establishing those
standards, establishes the
Special Court for Sierra
Leone, and is similar to that
establishing the Internation-
al Criminal Court.
Third, the Iraqi statute
called for foreign judges to
participate as advisors in the
process. The Iraqis wanted
foreign participation and
observation in the trial
process to assure the world
that international standards
of due process and fair trail
were given, to the accused
former dictator and his
codefendants. The world's
- acceptance of any outcome
as complying'k with intema-
tionally recognized 'stan-
dards of due process and
fair trail i.e., the rule of law
- was important to the new
government.of Iraq. Despite
this Iraqi desire many for-
eign nations declined to par-
ticipate because they, dis-
agreed with the Iraqi deci-
sion to retain the death
penalty. Consequently, it
was the decision of those na-
tions to not support Iraq,
not lack of Iraqi desire for
international observation
that limited judicial advi-
sors to mostly US, British,
and coalition judicial advi-
sors. Still, they were interna-
tional advisors.
The Iraqi form of criminal
law uses a version of the Eu-
ropean civil (as opposed to
our common law) system
that utilizes judge/prosecu-
tors, and is intertwined with
Iraqi law and culture. The
judge/prosecutors investi-
gate, and call and interro-
gate witnesses and evi-
dence, and spend days,
weeks, and months building
a case for an indictment. The
accused and his attorney
have the right to cross-ex-
amine and to review all evi-
dence throughout the inves-
tigative process of the case.
When the investigative
phase is complete, an indict-
ment is drafted, read to the
accused, and a formal trial is
begun. During the formal
trial the defense also has the
right 'to cross-examine wit-
nesses, to examine and
question, and counter with
evidence of its own. If the
defense has already done so
effectively during the inves-
tigation they frequently do
not do so again unless there
is a good reason. To West-
ern observers this appears
to be poor advocacy. To
those familiar with the sys-'
temrn it prevents a duplica-
tion of effort the judges
will have the benefit of the
defense efforts of cross ex-
amination and production
of evidence.
During the trial the prose-
cutor/judge presents evi-
dence already seen by the
defense and on which argu-
ments have been made.and
motions have already been
filed. Frequently there is no
reference to these motions
in the formal trial itself. To
Western observers of these
trials, such as humari rights
organizations familiar with
more formal types of trials
like our own,, the formal tri-
al in Iraq may seem to be a
kangaroo court. Some have
already been quoted, as be-.

ing outraged that defense
counsel has done poor jobs
or that testimony has come
in without objection or that
motions have been filed but
never ruled upon. These
criticizers either do not real-
ize or fail to disclose that all
these matters are dealt with
in the final order.
The final order is expected
to run hundreds of pages
and is expected to deal with
all of the reasons the ruling
judges accepted or did not
accept, believed or did not
believe the evidence; it
should list evidence they re-
lied upon and that which
they did not find worthy of
belief; and why they be-
lieved the court had juris-
diction or why it did not. In
short, all the matters that in
our courts, we deal with as
we go along, they save until
the end. One must read the
translated order before one
can conclude one way or the
other about the rulings of
the Iraqi court.
But the US, British and
other Allied government at-
torneys have spent many
hours training and working
with and advising some
very courageous Iraqi attor-
neys and judges. Some Iraqi
attorneys and judges have-
sacrificed their lives and
some have lost family mem-
bers to provide justice to
Saddam in this trial.
According to Professor
Newton, as one trained De-
fense Counsel stood to ar-
gue for Saddam's acquittal,
he was sharply warned by,
Saddam, to the effect, "If
you say one word, you are
an enemy of the State." (If.
you wonder at this you
must realize, Saddam does
not want this "government
of law" idea to catch on in
Iraq.) Defense Counsel then
stood and made a very
strong and well thought out,
excellent argument for four
hours, going to each detail
of law and fact that could be
argued in favor of his client,
who had just threatened his
life.
Let us not forget that it
was an Iraqi attorney who
risked his life to rescue Spe-
cialist Jessica Lynch back in
2003 during the invasion of
his country by our forces.
(SPC Lynch was in one of
the units Commanded by
the General to whom I
served as legal adviser and
the 507th Ambush and its
aftermath consumed a great
deal of my time.) Like the
lawyers of early American
history, the Iraqi Bar is not
made up of a bunch of
sissies. They are deserving
of our respect as courageous
practitioners of law, as
brave citizens seeking gov-
ernment of law for their
country and as heroes of
their struggling democracy.
Judge RB Davis is a former
Gainesville attorney who now
serves as Hamilton County
Judge. He was among the first
of the Florida lawyers to be mo-
bilized after 9/11 and served on
active duty in the global war on
terrorism for 23 months, in-
cluding two operations in the
Middle East, the last being the
invasion of Iraq. He retired
from the Florida National
Guard as a colonel in the Judge
Advocate General's Corps in
November 2005.

Veterans' Day ceremony and dedication of Veterans' Memorial Parkway

Gena Busscher, Florida Department of Transportation, unveiled the sign for the Veterans
Memorial Parkway.
Judge RB Davis (I) was the Master of Ceremony and
Commander Lawrence Udell, American Legion Post 215.
offered the,invocation.
Why do we celebrate
Veterans' Day?
Veterans' Day, formerly known 'as Armistice Day,
was originally set as a US legal holiday to honor the
end of World War I. Legislature was passed in 1938
that dedicated Nov. 11 "to the cause of world
peace."As such, this new legal holiday honored World
War I veterans.
In 1954. after World War II and the Korean War, the
83rd U.S. Congress amended the Act of 1938 by strik-
ing out the word "Armistice" and inserting the word
"Veterans." Nov. 11 became a day to honor all Ameri-
can veterans who served honorably in the military in
wartime or peacetime.
In 1968, the Uniforms Holiday Bill created three-day
weekends for federal employees by celebrating four
national holidays on Mondays. Veterans Day wyas
moved to the .ast Monday of October.
Many states did not agree with this decision and
continued to celebrate the holiday on its original date.
Firtally on Sept. 20, 1975, President Gerald R. Ford
signed a law that returned the annual observance of
Veterans Day to its original date of Nov. 11, beginning
in 1978.. Since then, the Veterans Day holiday has been
observed on Nov. 11. More pictures on 7B
Dennis Roberts, Third Judicial Circuit Public Defender,
was the guest speaker.
Roger Hutto played "Taps."
The Hamilton County High School ROTC presented the colors:
Becky Doblbin, Legislative Assistant to Senator Nancy Ar-
genziano.
Commander Sergeant Lamar Royals, Veterans of Foreign
Wars Post #8095, welcomed the guests to the ceremony.

Tips to-
winterize
your lawn
and garden -
Autumn is the time to
prepare your existing gar-
den for its winter hiberna-
tion. Here are some winter-
izing tips, courtesy of
DoItYourself.com, an on-
line home improvement re-
source.
Walk around your gar-
den and take note of what
plants, flowers shrubs, and
trees were successful dur-
ing the spring and summer
season. Clean the area by
removing weeds, any dis-
eased plants, and ones that
did not grow.
Look at your lawn for
patchy areas or crabgrass
and bald spots. Pull, dig
and fork out weeds. You
can try weed control prod-
ucts, but read the directions
carefully; you do not want
to destroy any. nearby
plants.
Remove any debris under
shrubs, roses and trees to
prevent pests, from hiding
out as well as lessen the risk
for diseases. As the leaves
start to fall, rake them up
and use for winter mulch.
Mow your lawn until the'
first frost comes. If grass is
left too long, it will lay over
onto itself from the pres-
sure of frost causing re-
duced air circulation and
mold disease.
Fertilize and re-seed your
lawn twice before the win-
ter once in early, fall to
prepare it for winter and,
again, in late fall to keep the
grass strong throughout the
winter. This allows nutri-
ents such as phosphorus,
nitrogen and potassium to
go straight to the roots and
convert into food reserves
for a quick start in the
spring.
Plant new bulbs, for
spring (tulips, daffodils,
hyacinths, muscari, crocus-
es, and perennials such as
peonies). The plant, root
systems will have several
months to grow and be-
come strong before' the soil
cools.
Add mulch around your
bulbs, roses, trees, and
shrubs. It provides a layer
of insulation on, top. of the
.soil, preventing sudden
changes in soil temperature
that can destroy a plant's
root system. Good mulch
choices are dried leaves,
clean straw, chopped dead
tops from other perennials,
or evergreen boughs from
pruning. Pile it high on top
of your plants (a depth of
six to eight inches or more
is ideal).

During this season of
Thanksgiving, there is so
much for which we can be
thankful. I am writing this
column on Monday, Nov.
13. This morning when I ar-
rived at work here in Jasper
at the District office and
stepped from my vehicle, I
was greeted by the crisp
autumn air, and the sound
of cattle lowing off in the
distance. Some people
might think it odd that I
would associate these
things with Thanksgiving,
but I do.
I am very thankful as, the
late Mrs. Mary W. Graham,
longtime Hamilton County
educator and White
Springs resident used to
say, that I was "in the num-
ber one more time" to be
able to feel the freshness
and briskness of the fall air
and to be able to hear the
sounds of the cattle lowing
in the distance. Many
times, being human, we
spend a lot more time ask-
ing God for things when
Swe should really be spend-
ing more time praising God
for the blessings we have.
During this Thanksgiving
season, give some thought
to how God is blessing you
each day, and I am sure
you will agree that "God is
good all the time -. All the
time God is good."
Congratulations are ex-
tended to Mrs. Joyce Law.
Shaw, White Springs, and
Mr. Damon Deas, Jennings,
newly elected School Board
members. Mrs. Shaw and
Mr. Deas will be sworn in
on Tuesday, Nov. 21. We
wish them all the best, as
they serve their con-
stituents on the School
Board.
Happy belated birthday
wishes go out to .Bettye
Brown, Jasper, who cele-
brated her birthday on
Wednesday, Nov. 15. and
Mr. Joe Taylor, Sr., who cel-
ebrated his birthday on Fri-
day, Nov. 10. We wish both
of these fine citizens many,
many more happy birth-
days!
Our sympathy is extend-
ed to the family of Mrs. Ce-
cilia "Ceil" Pound, White
Springs. Mrs. Pound, a
longtime White Springs
resident, had been a patient
at the Suwannee Valley
Nursing Facility in Jasper,
for several years, prior to
her demise. I grew up in
White Springs and have
been closely associated
with this family for. many,
many years. The family has
our most sincere prayers
during this time of bereave-
ment. Graveside services
for Mrs. Pound were con-
ducted at Riverside Ceme-
tery on Wednesday, Nov.
15, at 11 a.m. She was in-
terred there, next to her
.husband, the. late Frank:.S.
Pound.
Most all of the students
and staff members at South
Hamilton Elementary trav-
eled to Wild Adventures on
Friday, Nov. 10, to cele-
brate the fact that the
school received an "A"
grade for the 2005-2006
school year. I know that
everyone had a good time
on this special trip. Con-
gratulations to South on
this wonderful accomplish-
ment.
Our sympathy is extend-
ed to the family of Mrs.
Luella Robinson, Marion
Station, Jasper. Mrs. Robin-
son is survived by a host of
relatives and friends. Mr.
Fredrick Robinson, princi-
pal of Greenwood School
and the Panther Success
Center, is one of her many
grandchildren. The family
has the prayers of the
White Springs community.
First Baptist Church,
White Springs, Will hold a
Thanksgiving Program
during the morning wor-
ship service on Sunday,
Nov. 19, at 11 a.m. The pro-
gram entitled, "We Gather
Together," features drama
and song. Come out and
enjoy this program, as we
celebrate the season of
Thanksgiving.
A friend of mine came
down from Tifton, Ga., to
visit in White Springs on
Saturday. He had been here
before, but I took him on
the "grand tour," as it were.
We went through the his-
toric district and, of course,
over to the "Memorial," it
will always be the "Memo-
rial" to me. The "Memori-
al" was hopping with a
wedding taking place and
some other kind of gather-
ing over at Nelly Bly's
Kitchen. Some people are
not aware that the park fa-
cilities can be rented for
special occasions. One
must make sure, however,
that one calls and checks
the calendar "at the park,
and then there are rental
fees very reasonable
rental fees I might add. If
you are thinking of having
a special event, you may
want to consider the
Stephen Foster you'll be
glad you did. Give the folks
at Stephen Foster a call at

Special thanks to the
ADK Teacher Sorority and
"our own" Brenda Carter,
Sybil Allen arid Janie Her-
ring, for the delicious lun-
cheon served to us on our
last teacher workday. The
food and fellowship was a
pleasant break in our day.
Mark your calendars for
Friday, Nov. 17, for our
Annual Fall Festival be-
ginning at 9 a.m.
Mrs. Carter's first grade
busy bears, have been
busy studying about
pumpkins. They discussed
different sizes and shapes,
read many pumpkin sto-
ries and wrote stories
about pumpkins. They es-
pecially liked the story,
Pokey's' Garden by Andy
Bowen. As a closing activ-
ity, they enjoyed carving a
pumpkin and taking the.
seeds home to plant in the
spring. Kindergartners
participated in a pumpkin
activity when retired
teacher Linda Law visited
and carved a pumpkin.
An inspirational Veter-
ans Day program was pre-
sented in the North Hamil-
ton Elementary (NHE) au-
ditorium on Thursday,
Nov. 9. The front walk,
lined with American flags,
gave an appropriate wel-
come to visitors. The
Hamilton County High
School ROTC provided the
presentation of the flag.
Amber Jones sang the na-
tional anthem and Michael
Whetstone led the pledge.
Second graders, under
the direction of music
teacher Ms. Jones, did a
magnificent job perform-
ing two patriotic songs
with motions. Computer
coordinator Pam Hen-
drick, showed a video pre-
sentation, Tribute to our
Country, which included
American scenes and pic-
tures of service personnel,
NHE staff relatives. Some
staff members also
brought snapshots and
medals for display.
We were honored to
have Major Lee Peters Jr as
our guest speaker. He
shared some of his mili-
tary history and the mean-
inig of Veterans Day.
All veterans were hon-
ored with the playing of
their branch of service's
anthem and were present-
ed with small flags. We
appreciate all who came to
be a part of this very spe-
cial program. Mr. Burnam,
NHE Principal, gave clos-
ing remarks.
Thanks to Lee Wether-
ington-Zamora, for doing
a great job coordinating
this program. Eveniits like
this are just one way "we
are changing lives through
quality education."
hides will be allowed in the park except
for loading and unloading.
For-profit vendors will need an Occupa-
tional License, which costs $24, and can be
bought at the Jasper City Hall. They will
set up on 1st Ave. between the Family Dol-
lar and the Jasper City Park.

blue; gold; clear and smoke. Each col-
or has a meaning: green-prosperity;

sonalized to your surroundings, the

one believes there is a cross for every-

at a local church and also a full time
auto sales consultant in Thomasville,

Crafters and heritage artisans
O ne of the region's longest-ruung
heritage festivals, Old Tyme Farm.
Days, will be held Nov. 25 at the
Spirit of the Suwannee Music Park
in Live Oak.
The event originated in the 1980s when life-
long Suwannee County residents John Paul
Schneider and Tom Boatright began gathering
friends at the Schneider farm. Longtime farmers
came together to re-enact plowing and other
farming chores with their mules and workhors-
es. As more people began to come over the
years to share heritage crafts, arts and activities,
the event moved to the Spirit of the Suwannee
Music Park in 1987. Under the shaping of Mu-
o Pontiac G6 Hardtop Convertible!!
iT .
sS6 ~
sic Park founder, Jean Comett, the event
evolved into one of the major events at the Park.
Thousands of visitors over the years have par-'
ticipated in rural traditions such as cane grind-
ing, soap making, blacksmithing, kettle corn
cooking, weaving and spinning, fly wheeling
(small steam engines), cooking over a fire,
leather-curing, candle making and more.
Schoolchildren have delighted in activities such
as falconry demonstrations, story-telling, mule-
drawn wagon rides, the art of quilting and the
fun of clogging. Today, the Boatright Barn at
the Spirit of the Suwannee serves as a mini-mu-
seum.n of sorts, with tools, artifacts and farming
implements giving a glimpse of North Florida

history from the 1800s.
Event coordinator Gloria Rittman is
seeking crafts people, re-enactors and ar-
.tisans to be part of this year's event.
"Even if you don't consider yourself a
professional artist or heritage draftslperson
but simply know how to demonstrate
something such as making butter or soap,
we'd love to have you," commented
Rittman. Participants are welcome to sell 7 p
their wares as well. For more informa- Fr
tion, Rittman can be contacted at 386-

SAD a common winter health concern
Depression is an illness just like diabetes or heart disease. It
is neither a mood nor a personality trait that can be modified at
will, contrary to what some people perceive. According to
pharmaceutical ,giant Eli Lilly and Company, more than 18
million people in America alone suffer from from some type
of depression, and one in eight persons need treatment for
depression during his or her lifetime.
One type of depression that can occur this time of year is
Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). It occurs primarily during
the winter months when the hours of daylight diminish and the
hours of darkness are greater. Among the worst months for
SAD are January and February. Typically, with SAD the
symptoms of depression virtually vanish come the spring
months when the ratio between light and dark become better
balanced. However, there are some exceptions to the rule.
Some people have signs and symptoms of depression in the
spring and summer, often being referred to reverse SAD.
SAD is more than just a case of cabin fever. This condition
induces feelings of lethargy, sleep problems, irritability, and
cravings for starches or'sweets. Although the exact numbers
are unknown, it's estimated that about 6 percent of Americans
suffer from winter SAD, and another 10 percent to 20 percent
may experience mild SAD symptoms, according to The Mayo
Clinic. The disorder usually begins during adolescence. It's
To place an ad on this page, please
also more common in women than in men, as are most forms
of depression.
The exact cause of SAD is unknown, but many doctors
suspect a correlation between sunlight and the production of
melotonin, a hormone produced by the pineal gland.
Melotonin regulates the body's internal clock darkness
induces the production of more melotonin to assist with falling
to sleep and "hibernating." The long nights of winter may
cause melotonin production to be more pronounced, hence
leading to the symptoms of fatigue and listlessness of SAD.
This makes SAD unique from other types of depression, which
are thought to be mainly attributed to an imbalance in the
brains neurotransmitters serotonin and norephinepherine.
While many people experience blue moods once in a while,
if this feeling is prolonged, affecting sleep or eating patterns,
and compromising productivity, help should be sought out. If
thoughts of suicide are present,' contact a medical professional
or hospital immediately.
Treatment for SAD may include a combination of
psychotherapy and medication. Some have also found that
light therapy exposure to a special bright light that simulates
natural sunlight can also be effective in resetting the
circadian rhythms that regulate a person's internal clock.

A non-profit corporation whose mission is to end the overpopulation of pet animals and promote humane treatment
of all animals kept as pets, domestic livestock, and wildlife. Donations are tax deductible under IRS Rule 501(c)(3).
Need Help to Spay
your Cat or Dog?
North Florida PAWS received a grant from "Florida Animal
Friends' Spay/Neuter License Plate Fund" to assist limited-
income households at $24,000 or less to spay their female
dogs and cats. For a small co-payment, we will pay the
entire cost of the surgery for eligible pet owners. Vouchers
to spay female dogs and cats at 8 weeks of age or older
will be issued as long as funds are available.
Applications are available on our website
www.northfloridapaws.org and at participating
veterinarians' offices.
1. Huston Veterinary Clinic in Jasper
2. All Springs Veterinary Hospital in Wellborn
3. Suwannee Oaks Veterinary Clinic near Branfbrd
4. Mayo Town & County Veterinary Clinic
PREVENTING the thousands of unwanted puppies and
kittens produced every year in our community is our first
priority. North Florida PAWS is in the process of building a
facility in Hamilton County which will. house a Spay-Neuter
clinic, Dog Training Center,-and small Adoption Center.
We hope to eventually support a Mobile Spay/Neuter Unit
to serve outlying areas.
Every family pet that is ADOPTED form an animal shelter
or rescue group reduces the number of unwanted animals.

able with no price increase
over last year.
The new amphitheater
comes just in time as Wild
Adventures is busy planning
the biggest concert line-up
yet! Get ready for country,
rock, pop, Contemporary
Christian, and more. Already
on board for 2007 is the red-
neck yacht-clubber Craig
Morgan. Other country fa-
vorites on the way are Charlie
Daniels, Billy Currington,
Montgomery Gentry and
CMA award-winner Sara
Evans. The Winter Jam Tour
features some of Contempo-
rary Christian music's hottest
artists, including Jeremy
Camp, Steven Curtis Chap-
man, Newsong, Hawk Nelson
and Sarictus Real. Later in the
summer, the genre's biggest
touring band, Third Day,
makes a stop at Wild Adven-
tures. And get ready for the
"Joker," as the Steve Miller
Band brings classic rock to
the brand-new stage. Other
artists invited to appear in
2007 include Brooks &
Dunn, Josh Turner, JoJo,
Hootie & the Blowfish, Brad
Paisley, ZZ Top, Crosby,
Stills & Nash, Heart,
Gretchen Wilson, Hannah
Montana, The Cheetah Girls
and Tye Tribbett.
The new amphitheater is
not the only park venue en-
joying a make-over. Animal
lovers will appreciate the
newly refurbished animal
stage and the bigger and bet-
ter shows to take place on it.
Discover new stars in "Ani-
mals of the World" and even
more slithery facts and fun in
"World of Snakes."
Aside from the new animal
shows, the entire show line-
up will receive a fresh, new
look. Find new adventures in
Bugsville, more magic and il-
lusion in "Shazzam" and even
bigger laughs with our Wild
West bunch.'
Guests will also enjoy even
more activities associated
with the park's special events,
starting with this December's
holiday festival, "An Old-
Fashioned Christmas." Invit-
ed to escape the hustle and
bustle of the season, patrons
will experience the sitnple
pleasures of Christmas; the
traditions that hearken back
to a simpler time. Millions of
lights and colorful displays
will blanket the park with
holiday cheer, creatifig a glo-
rious backdrop for a host of
seasonal activities. "An Old-
Fashioned Christmas" will
kick off Nov. 18 with a spe-
cial Tree Lighting ceremony
featuring the Tallahassee
Boys Choir at 6:30 p.m.
"Arctic Adventure"
promises chilly fun with skat-
ing, sledding, snow play and
more starting this January.
"Kidzpalooza" shifts to the
spring, bringing with it a
park full of pint-sized activi-
ties. Red, white and blue is
the order of the day during
"Celebrate America," where
every day is the Fourth of
July. "Phobia" descends on
the park next October, com-
plete with new thrills and
chills and the year winds up
with "An Old-Fashioned
Christmas."
Wild Adventures will also
see a multitude of improve-
ments throughout the park,
including games, rides, guest
services and more. Additional
food stands will be added to
the park, including the trans-
formation of Dockside Deli.
The deli sandwiches will
shift to a different location in
the park, making the way for
delicious premium burgers.
Saturday's Food Court, locat-
ed in the concert area, will
also get a new look and
menu.
