Rumors are going around, though highly unlikely, as the enclosed article mentions, that Disney plans to build another theme park resort in Brunswick County, not far for Wilmington, NC. Here is a URL to the article:

Such rumors about Disney building a theme park resort in the Wilmington, NC area do not surprise me a bit! There had been somewhat of a film/TV industry in the Wilmington area off and on for the last 20 years, which peaked in the mid-to-late 1990's. Many movies and TV shows have been made there, though this has declined a bit since the late 1990's. The TV shows Dawson's Creek and One Tree Hill are/were filmed there, as was the pilot epsiode of Touched By an Angel. This, as well as its close proximity to the #2 rated vacation spot in the U.S., Myrtle Beach, SC (71 miles southwest of Wilmington) make this rumor quite predictable!
