Ocali Country Days
For one week, early in November, the Center and Park put on the Ocali Country Days as a fund raiser. This is a 19th century, living history event with displays, talks, and performances incorporating living historians. For that Tuesday through Friday it is open to public, private and home school-age children and their teachers who have made reservations with the Center. In 2008, attendance was limited to 1,200 students and teachers per day and this quota was filled every day. So make your reservations early.
The event is open to the general public on Saturday and Sunday and has become a popular annual attraction in the area.

Famous quotes containing the words country and/or days:
“The country is provincial; it becomes ridiculous when it tries to ape Paris.”
—Honoré De Balzac (1799–1850)
“In a few days I’ll have lived one score and three days in this vale of tears. On I plod—always bored, often drunk, doing no penance for my faults—rather do I become more tolerant of myself from day to day, hardening my crystal heart with blasphemous humor and shunning only toothpicks, pathos, and poverty as being the three unforgivable things in life.”
—F. Scott Fitzgerald (1896–1940)
