Barb talks with John Athanason, Public Relations Manager Weeki Wachee Springs State Park in Florida. He talks about the Springs including some facts about daily volume, water clarity and temperature. About the mermaid theater, where it was built and how it was assembled. About the mermaids, their long history, their training, how they some of the retired cast do special shows that are very popular. And a brief history of the park itself, how it started as a roadside attraction to now a low key day trip from the theme parks and how people who visited years ago are bringing their grand kids. The final segment talks about the Mold-a-rama machine and how the park was lucky enough to get the original mermaid molds from back in the day.
