1)Disneyland, which is referred to as "the happiest place on
earth" and has provided time-honored and beloved traditions of
entertainment to generations of families in California and
nationwide, will celebrate its 60th anniversary in 2015.

family entertainment achievement of the 20th century,
introducing an entirely new concept in outdoor entertainment
and stabling an icon of fun and magic known around the word
which continues well into the 21st century.
3)The myriad manifestations of the philanthropy embraced by the
Walt Disney Company and it 28,000 employees are equally
