“At one point,” remembers Peter Rummell, “Celebration was going to be modeled on a factory town, like Hershey, Pennsylvania, which is a tourist destination where people pay to watch other people make chocolate. Ultimately imately, Rummell rememberers, “No one could figure out what could be made or produced in our new town that would draw these tourists.”
