Future World History

---

In May of 1974, Carl Walker, (then President and COO) announced that the Disney company would move ahead in the development of Walt Disney's perception of EPCOT. The decision was based on the inability of implementing Walt Disney's original vision. Not that the Imaginears where incapable but the question was how do you develop someone else's vision. You need the visionary and that was impossible.

It took about 6 years for WED Enterprises to develop the idea of EPCOT. There would be two main parts - Future World and World Showcase. Future World was visualized as the "science experiment". New ideas were revealed, created and than tested,. The resulting "data" would enable Disney to show new resources, materials and equipment for use in our daily life. Future World shows us were we have been and where we are going.

Club Cool, formerly known as Ice Cool Station has undergone a radical change. Gone is the snow, the frozen caveman and a "chilly" place to cool off on a hot summer day. In its place is a rather boring spot. When you walk in you are greeted by 3 - 5 very small tables, which are not necessarily that close to the sample soda dispensers. In place of the many soda dispensers are two large tubes with dispensers on 4 sides. This reconfiguration leaves little room for interaction among the other guests.

The soda bar offers the build a cup option, which you can also find in Goofy's Candy Company at Downtown Disney. The difference between the locations is that Club Cool only offers two flavors - Coke and Fanta Blue Raspberry. If you don't want to build a cup you can buy a standard (regular) cup. Next to the soda bar is probably the best thing, other than the samples of coke, at Club Cool. The shrink wrapped bottle station. At a cost of 2.50, you buy a bottle of soda, choose a label and place it in a machine. Magic happens and the label shrinks to fit the bottle. This is a great gift or souvenir.

Epcot Future World Trivia

---

• Known as "Future World's global Main Street of ideas and inventions," EPCOT Center 's CommuniCore was similar to the Magic Kingdom 's Main Street USA - each acting as the central "hub" of their park that all guests must travel through as they enter or exit.

  Communicore was made up of two crescent-shaped buildings that were broken into 4 areas, consisting of a north and south area of Communicore East and Communicore West. The northeast quadrant contained EPCOT Computer Central, Travelport, Energy Exchange and the Stargate Restaurant. Communicore West housed "EPCOT Outreach" and FutureCom.

  CommuniCore closed in 1994. Many of the attractions were removed or replaced, and the pavilion reopened as Innoventions West and Innoventions East.
