Welcome to Eastland - The "Factsiest" Place on Earth! (FOL Disneyland)
That's right! Not pronounced "EASTluhnd" like the school name, but "East Land", like "Disneyland"!
 How great would it be if there were a "Facts of Life" theme park?? Just think of it! Walk-around characters! "Semester" passes! "Year" passes! "Extra Credit" bonuses for passholders! And SO! MUCH! MORE!  So Disneyland is divided into 4 lands:
In my plans for Eastland: Lost Girls USA, it's divided into these 4 lands:
You can have fun building your own version, or adding onto this one.  See below for details on attractions! (ones with parenthetical names at the end were submitted by those fellow board members. Ones without names at the end were done by me)

Move over castle...
In the middle of Disneyland is Sleeping Beauty's Castle, but here in Eastland the center anchor is---THE DORM. That's right, step into the hallowed dorm of Mrs. Garrett and all 7 of her girls. Stroll through the building just as it appears on TV! Walk-around characters of Mrs. Garrett, all 7 girls, Miss Mahoney, and Mr. Bradley will appear around the dorm at different times during the day for meet-and-greets and photo ops. Don't forget one of the destination eateries in the park, "The Cafeteria" just behind The Dorm. Only open for lunch, it's one of the most sought-after and least-open eateries in the park. And its lunch menu is the comfortably the same every day of the year: Lunch: Mystery Meat (FDA-approved---barely) Green Bell Pepper on Bed of Lettuce (vegetarian dish) Dessert: Cinnamon Buns (fresh-baked every day!) And neighboring the dorm, don't forget to visit the solemn, awe-inspiring Hall of Headmasters (similar to Hall of Presidents, but with Audio-Animatronic versions of Misters Crocker, Bradley, Harris, Parker, and Morehead, and Ms. Warner). [TV Guy] ----------------------- Peekskill USA And while Disneyland's entrance leads you down Main Street USA, here when you enter the park you stroll toward the dorm in the distance down "Peekskill USA"! Be sure to stop in at all these unique Peekskill attractions! Miss Mahoney's Perm Palace - Need a new 'do? Something to change up your looks? Stop in here to have one of the local beauty school's bottom drop-outs give you a perm you'll never forget! (No refunds) Peekskill Pizza - Just like Tootie skated home with pizzas from in "The Facts of Love"! (just make sure you get correct change!) Steve's 8-Tracks - Get your favorite albums, only on 8-track! Bong Records - A record store full of vintage record albums and also bongs that are great for holding jellybeans! Charlie's Typewriters - Typewriters that are legitimately for sale! Honest! Mama Rose's Original Bronx Pizza, Inc. - The best pizza in the park! (TV Guy) Darlow’s Coffee Shop - A replica of the greasy spoon where Tootie almost became a prostitute. Park cast members play world-weary waitress Bernice, and sleazy pimp Mike. (TV Guy) ChugaLug Bar - Where parents can enjoy an adult beverage while the kiddies are off doing something else in Peekskill. (TV Guy) |

EPCOF (Experimental Prototype Core of Four)
Blair's Cranium - Explore the day in the life of Blair Warner as we get in her head! Here the right brain helps her creative side paint Sue Ann flat chested and logical left side helps her come up with excuses for copying a poem from Emily Dickinson! Uh oh she's just met the delivery boy Steve and her hormones are running wild! But her Adrenal Gland is full of panic as Natalie sits in the other room! (Lorimar Television) The Making of Whoopee - This sensitive film goes back in time as Natalie's daughter explores how Nat and her husband planned and had her. (Lorimar Television) Happy Magic Marker - This hands-on exhibit area is full of optical illusions! Is it a skinny pencil or a happy magic marker? It depends on where you're standing! How does it work?! (Lorimar Television) Au"Jo"pia - Hop on your Yamaha road hog and race around laps around the cafeteria building to see what a record time you can make! But be careful of Mrs. Garrett's marigolds! If you flatten any, an Audio-Animatronic Mrs. Garrett will scream out the window and throw cheese puffs at you! And in EPCOF, the centerpiece of Girl Showcase can be The A"Blair"ican Adventure, celebrating that princess that Tootie has deemed a "national treasure", Blair Warner! Don't forget to stop by the food stand for a great big piece of delicious "Blairy-pie"!
