Vivos Survival Shelter and Resort
The California company Vivos under Robert Vicino acquired it in 2013 and is converting it to what it calls "the world's largest doomsday shelter" to accommodate "5,000 people living in up to 1,500 RVs. Customers will buy a spot and pay $1,000 per lineal foot of their vehicle. A 25-foot-long RV would cost $25,000 plus a $1,500 charge per person to pay for a year's worth of provided food and toiletries." It is to have indoor golfing, a bowling alley and swimming pool complete with a water slide. There will be blast doors.

Famous quotes containing the words survival, shelter and/or resort:
“... survival is the least of my desires.”
—Dorothy Allison (b. 1949)
“Sustained unemployment not only denies parents the opportunity to meet the food, clothing, and shelter needs of their children but also denies them the sense of adequacy, belonging, and worth which being able to do so provides. This increases the likelihood of family problems and decreases the chances of many children to be adequately prepared for school.”
—James P. Comer (20th century)
“It is now quite lawful for a Catholic woman to avoid pregnancy by a resort to mathematics, though she is still forbidden to resort to physics and chemistry.”
—H.L. (Henry Lewis)
