Welcome to the 50th Annual Wausau <strong>Possum</strong> <strong>Festival</strong><br />

There have been a lot of changes in Wausau and Northwest Florida since 1970,<br />

the year the Wausau <strong>Possum</strong> <strong>Festival</strong> and Fun Day was created by Dalton<br />

Carter and the Wausau community.<br />

In 1970 there were no computers, digital cameras or electric cars. There was<br />

no internet, no cell phones, Facebook or Instagram. Our children ran around<br />

barefoot on occasion, stayed outside well after dark and even ran with scissors.<br />

Children rode in the back of pick-up trucks, and we didn’t even use seatbelts.<br />

Still, we managed to live a good life, full of promise and hope, and we loved and<br />

took advantage of most everything God gave us- sunshine, the old swimming<br />

hole and the culture and heritage of Northwest Florida.<br />

The world has changed in the last 50 years, but this festival remains- still paying<br />

homage to our history, heritage and simpler way of life, and we wouldn’t have<br />

it any other way. Thanks for being our guest at the 50th anniversary of what<br />

started out as a dream to put Wausau on the map and give people something to<br />

do during the ‘dog days’ of Summer. When you return home after the festival,<br />

think back fondly of the peace and quiet, quality of life and relaxed lifestyle of this<br />

Wausau community. Enjoy!<br />
