This year, in addition to Easter Bunny visits, bonnet crafts and a parade, SFB features new limited engagement, interactive shows especially designed for kids and families. The line-up features a special appearance by PBS family stars, Laughing Pizza. The nine-day festival also includes a sneak peek of Stone Mountain Park’s famous Lasershow Spectacular.
“Spring is a time of starting fresh and de-cluttering. Spring Fun Break helps kids and parents shake off the winter blues and get active, participating in outdoor activities and shows that spark their imaginations,” said Stan Morrell, director of entertainment and events at Stone Mountain Park. “And with budget-friendly options like a Family Value Pass or Mountain Membership, families can enjoy lots of activities and dining out without breaking the bank.”
SFB kicks off its varied entertainment slate on April 2 with Easter Bunny visits and Easter hat crafts. After creating their top hat masterpieces, parents and kids can don their new bonnets and join the Easter Bunny Parade.

Families are in charge of the action when zany comedians take suggestions from the audience to come up with the most fantastic tales imaginable.
Also new this year to SFB, is the world’s only animated talking goat, Hilda.

The interactive screen transports children to the Cole Family Farm to meet and talk with the friendly goat.

The fun continues when kids use their imaginations at the new Make & Believe attraction. Activities such as fort building, puppet shows, mega building blocks, mural and face painting invites kids to express their creativity.
Families can conclude the day with a sneak peak of the Lasershow Spectacular before it returns regularly this summer. With displays of laser lights, graphics, characters and fireworks, the Lasershow Spectacular is an Atlanta attraction that is not to be missed.

Time to Talk Turkey
Turkey hunters across the state are practicing their yelps and clucks in preparation for the upcoming turkey season. Opening day is Sat., Mar. 20 and the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division anticipates that the 2010 season should be good, and harvest levels should be similar in comparison to the past several years.
“There should be many vocal 2-year old gobblers available for harvest this year thanks to the high reproduction rate in the summer of 2008,” says Kevin Lowrey, Wildlife Resources Division wild turkey project coordinator.
Statistics from the 2009 season harvest summary indicate that an estimated 56,113 resident Georgia hunters bagged 27,323 turkeys last year. The bird to hunter ratio (harvest rate) for 2009 was .49 birds per hunter – the same as in 2007 and 2008.
According to Lowrey, Georgia’s current turkey population is estimated at 300,000 birds.
Georgia turkey hunters are privileged with one of the longest turkey seasons nationwide. With a bag limit of three gobblers per season, hunters have from Mar. 20through May 15 to harvest their bird(s). Because most hunters pursue wild turkeys on private lands, the Wildlife Resources Division reminds hunters to always obtain landowner permission before hunting.
WMA Hunting Opportunities
Georgia’s Wildlife Management Areas offer excellent turkey hunting opportunities. Through the WMA system, resident hunters have access to nearly one million acres of prime hunting land for just $19 a year. Success rates and total harvest numbers from 2009 may help indicate which WMAs hunters should target this year.
In the northwest, Crockford-Pigeon Mountain and Berry College WMA reported the highest harvest rates. In the northeast, Dukes Creek WMA and Wilson Shoals WMA had the highest harvest rates. In west central Georgia, hunters should try Joe Kurz WMA and Rum Creek WMA. In east central Georgia, Di-Lane Plantation WMA and Tuckahoe WMA reported high harvest rates. In the southeast, hunters should visit Dixon Memorial WMA and Sansavilla WMA. Middle Georgia hunter should try River Bend WMA Finally, in southwest Georgia, River Creek WMA and Chickasawhatchee WMA had the highest harvest rates.
A special WMA license is required for any person 16 years or older who does not possess a valid honorary, sportsman or lifetime license when hunting wild turkey on a WMA, Public Fishing Area or State Park. In addition, both a valid hunting license and a big game license are required to legally hunt wild turkey. Wild turkey legally can be hunted with shotguns, loaded with No. 2 or smaller shot, any muzzleloading firearm, longbow, crossbow or compound bow.
Conservation of the Wild Turkey in Georgia
The comeback of the wild turkey is one of Georgia’s great conservation success stories. Although the bird population currently hovers around 300,000 statewide, as recently as 1973, the wild turkey population was as low as 17,000. Intensive restoration efforts, such as the restocking of wild birds and increased emphasis on biologically sound hunting seasons, have helped re-establish turkeys in suitable habitat in every county. This resurgence is due to the efforts of private landowners, hunters and conservation organizations like the National Wild Turkey Federation.
The Georgia Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation has donated more than $3,220,977 since 1985 on projects that benefit wild turkey and other wildlife. The NWTF works cooperatively in partnership with the Wildlife Resources Division and other land management agencies with the focus on habitat enhancement, hunter access, wild turkey research and education. There currently are 96 state chapters of the NWTF with membership totals of more than 16,000.

Through the WMA system, resident hunters have access to nearly one million acres of prime hunting land for just $19 a year. Success rates and total harvest numbers from 2009 may help indicate which WMAs hunters should target this year.
In the northwest, Crockford-Pigeon Mountain and Berry College WMA reported the highest harvest rates. In the northeast, Dukes Creek WMA and Wilson Shoals WMA had the highest harvest rates. In west central Georgia, hunters should try Joe Kurz WMA and Rum Creek WMA. In east central Georgia, Di-Lane Plantation WMA and Tuckahoe WMA reported high harvest rates. In the southeast, hunters should visit Dixon Memorial WMA and Sansavilla WMA. Middle Georgia hunter should try River Bend WMA Finally, in southwest Georgia, River Creek WMA and Chickasawhatchee WMA had the highest harvest rates.
A special WMA license is required for any person 16 years or older who does not possess a valid honorary, sportsman or lifetime license when hunting wild turkey on a WMA, Public Fishing Area or State Park. In addition, both a valid hunting license and a big game license are required to legally hunt wild turkey. Wild turkey legally can be hunted with shotguns, loaded with No. 2 or smaller shot, any muzzleloading firearm, longbow, crossbow or compound bow.
Conservation of the Wild Turkey in Georgia
The comeback of the wild turkey is one of Georgia’s great conservation success stories. Although the bird population currently hovers around 300,000 statewide, as recently as 1973, the wild turkey population was as low as 17,000. Intensive restoration efforts, such as the restocking of wild birds and increased emphasis on biologically sound hunting seasons, have helped re-establish turkeys in suitable habitat in every county. This resurgence is due to the efforts of private landowners, hunters and conservation organizations like the National Wild Turkey Federation.
The Georgia Chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation has donated more than $3,220,977 since 1985 on projects that benefit wild turkey and other wildlife. The NWTF works cooperatively in partnership with the Wildlife Resources Division and other land management agencies with the focus on habitat enhancement, hunter access, wild turkey research and education. There currently are 96 state chapters of the NWTF with membership totals of more than 16,000.

Cult Classic “The Boondock Saints” Returns to Movie Theaters for 10th Anniversary
Special One-Night Event this March
NCM Fathom Presents The Boondock Saints 10th Anniversary Event
with an Exclusive Behind-the-Scenes Retrospective by
Creator/Writer/Director Troy Duffy in More than 450 Select Movie Theaters
Ten years after emerging as a cult sensation, “The Boondock Saints” will return to the big screen in a special one-night presentation, The Boondock Saints 10th Anniversary Event, on Thursday, March 11th at 7:30 p.m. local time. Creator, writer and director Troy Duffy will introduce the event and share rare behind-the-scenes experiences and footage as well as exclusive interviews with cast and crew members including Norman Reedus (Murphy MacManus) and Sean Patrick Flanery (Connor MacManus), captured especially for this anniversary celebration. Audiences will also be treated to special performance clips by The Dirges, Ty Stone and Taylor Duffy whose music is part of the upcoming soundtrack to The Boondock Saints II: All Saints Day, along with a sneak peek into the mobile games, comic books and graphic novel currently in development.
Presented by NCM Fathom, The Boondock Saints, LLC, and Hot Topic, tickets for The Boondock Saints 10th Anniversary Event are available at www.FathomEvents.com and presenting theater box offices. For a complete list of theater locations and prices, please visit the web site (theaters and participants are subject to change).
“Twenty-ten is already shaping up to be an amazing milestone year for The Boondock Saints and for the millions of fans who have literally carried us to where we are today,” said Duffy. “I know I speak for Sean and Norman as well when I say that it’s going to be a year-long celebration of our connecting with, thanking and entertaining as many fans as possible just for the pure thrill of it all…and it starts on March 11th.”
Initially released in 2000 as a limited engagement to theaters following the Columbine tragedy, “The Boondock Saints” has gained a tremendous cult following, selling more than seven million DVDs to date. Acclaimed by critics and fans alike, “The Boondock Saints” is a story about fraternal twin brothers Connor & Murphy MacManus who embark upon a mission to rid Boston of human evil. After killing two members of the Russian mafia in self-defense, these hard-drinking brothers take the law into their own hands. No public outcry is heard and even FBI agent Paul Smecker begins to feel that the brothers are doing a good deed.
“The Boondock Saints” was previously presented by NCM Fathom in 2006 in 130 select theaters.
“’The Boondock Saints’ special event was a hit four years ago as thousands of fans experienced this cult classic in their local movie theaters,” said Dan Diamond, vice president of NCM Fathom. “For those who have only seen this crime thriller on the small screen, this is a unique opportunity to experience it on the big screen like never before with an exclusive retrospective from Troy and the cast members who are part of ‘The Boondock Saints’ decade long journey.”
The Boondock Saints 10th Anniversary Event will be shown in 457 select movie theaters including, AMC Entertainment Inc., Celebration! Cinema, Cinemark Holdings, Inc., Clearview Cinemas, Georgia Theatre Co., Goodrich Quality Theaters, Hollywood Theaters, Kerasotes Showplace Theatres, National Amusements and Regal Entertainment Group movie theaters, as well as Arlington Theatre (Santa Barbara, CA), Bainbridge 5 (Seattle, WA), The Carolina (Asheville, NC), Palace Cinema 9 (South Burlington, VT) and Penn Cinema (Lititz, PA), through NCM’s exclusive Digital Broadcast Network – North America’s largest cinema broadcast network.

Atlanta to Celebrate Dr. Jane Goodall's Extraordinary Legacy
Renowned Primatologist, Humanitarian and Conservationist to Lecture at Fernbank Museum of Natural History
Jane Goodall, Ph.D., DBE, founder of the Jane Goodall Institute and UN Messenger of Peace, will be in Atlanta on the evening of Friday, February 19, 2010, for a celebration of her extraordinary legacy at Fernbank Museum of Natural History.
This year marks a monumental milestone for the Jane Goodall Institute (JGI) and Dr. Goodall. Fifty years ago, Goodall, who is today a world-renowned primatologist, conservationist and humanitarian, first set foot on the shores of Lake Tanganyika, in what is now Tanzania’s Gombe National Park. The chimpanzee behavioral research she pioneered there has produced a wealth of scientific discovery, and her vision has expanded into a global mission to empower people to make a difference for all living things.
Atlanta residents will have a unique opportunity to hear Dr. Goodall speak while helping her commemorate the 50th anniversary of the ongoing Gombe research and her remarkable career.
“Dr. Goodall chose to stop in Atlanta during this celebratory year as there is a large base of support in the area,” said Mary Norman, senior vice president of development at the Jane Goodall Institute. “From the students at Warren T. Jackson and other elementary schools who are active in Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots, the Institute’s global environmental and humanitarian youth program, to museums like Fernbank that help spread her message of hope and inspire future scientists, Atlantans are making a difference, every day.”
“Jane Goodall is a major force for change and an inspiration to make positive things happen for our communities, animals and the environment,” said Fernbank Museum’s President and CEO Susan Neugent “It takes a network of citizens to make the world a better place—role models like Dr. Goodall who dedicate their lives to research; future scientists who will continue interpreting her work; partners like Fernbank that create engaging opportunities to learn; and museum visitors like Fernbank’s who have become active stewards of our planet, our ecosystems and our world cultures.. We’re all working toward the same goal, but it takes each of us together to achieve it.”
The event at Fernbank Museum, located at 767 Clifton Road in Atlanta, will include:
· A cocktail reception from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
· An exclusive showing of the IMAX® film Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees
· Welcoming remarks by Susan Neugent, President & CEO of Fernbank Museum
· Remarks by Dr. Goodall
Tickets to this event are $95 per person with a cash bar. Space is limited and advanced reservations are required. To purchase tickets, please contact Alicia Zarillo at azarillo@janegoodall.org or call 703-682-9288.
About the Jane Goodall Institute
Founded in 1977, the Jane Goodall Institute continues Dr. Goodall’s pioneering research on chimpanzee behavior—research that transformed scientific perceptions of the relationship between humans and animals. Today, the Institute is a global leader in the effort to protect chimpanzees and their habitats. It also is widely recognized for establishing innovative community-centered conservation and development programs in Africa, and Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots, the global environmental and humanitarian youth program that has groups more than 120 countries. For more information, please visit www.janegoodall.org.
About Jane Goodall’s Roots & Shoots
Founded in 1991 by Dr. Jane Goodall and a group of Tanzanian students, the Roots & Shoots program is about making positive change happen—for our communities, for animals and for the environment. With hundreds of thousands of young people in more than 120 countries, the Roots & Shoots network connects youth of all ages who share a desire to create a better world. Young people identify problems in their communities and take action. Through service projects, youth-led campaigns and an interactive website, Roots & Shoots members are making a difference across the globe. For more information, please visit www.rootsandshoots.org.
About Fernbank Museum of Natural History
Since1992 Atlanta’s Fernbank Museum of Natural History has provided a gateway for all ages to discover and explore the earth’s history, the environment and human culture through dynamic exhibitions, programs and IMAX® films. Fernbank’s alliance with Dr. Jane Goodall’s mission to create a worldwide network of people who care deeply for their human community, all animals and the environment included the popular 2004 exhibition Discovering Chimpanzees: The Remarkable World of Jane Goodall and the IMAX® film Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees. Fernbank’s achievements have been recognized with the seal of accreditation from the American Association of Museums, a distinction earned by less than five percent of museums in the United States.

“Jane Goodall is a major force for change and an inspiration to make positive things happen for our communities, animals and the environment,” said Fernbank Museum’s President and CEO Susan Neugent “It takes a network of citizens to make the world a better place—role models like Dr. Goodall who dedicate their lives to research; future scientists who will continue interpreting her work; partners like Fernbank that create engaging opportunities to learn; and museum visitors like Fernbank’s who have become active stewards of our planet, our ecosystems and our world cultures.. We’re all working toward the same goal, but it takes each of us together to achieve it.”
The event at Fernbank Museum, located at 767 Clifton Road in Atlanta, will include:
· A cocktail reception from 5:30 p.m. to 6:30 p.m.
· An exclusive showing of the IMAX® film Jane Goodall’s Wild Chimpanzees
· Welcoming remarks by Susan Neugent, President & CEO of Fernbank Museum
· Remarks by Dr. Goodall
Tickets to this event are $95 per person with a cash bar. Space is limited and advanced reservations are required. To purchase tickets, please contact Alicia Zarillo at azarillo@janegoodall.org or call 703-682-9288.

Fernbank Museum Offers Rare Glimpse into a Land Steeped in Mystery and Myth in Thought-Provoking New IMAX® Film, ARABIA
A land steeped in mystery and myth is revealed in stunning dimensions in the thought-provoking new film ARABIA, which opens in Fernbank Museum’s IMAX® Theatre on March 12, 2010. The film unfolds the story of an extreme desert environment that through the riches of global trade, a deep devotion to faith and its people’s thirst for knowledge, has become one of the most powerful, yet least understood, regions on Earth today.
This kaleidoscopic portrait of Arabia delves into the storied past and impending future through a mix of contemporary images of modern-day life, epic historical recreations, and visual effects that will allow theatre-goers to ride the dunes with a camel caravan, dive into the treasure-laden Red Sea, explore the ruins of a towering lost city, hurtle back into the Islamic golden age of invention, join three million Muslims on the Hajj pilgrimage, and get to know the young Arabians transforming tomorrow’s world. The result is a surprising and illuminating journey that not only unveils an often hidden world -- but also serves as a bridge between two cultures that have long misunderstood one another.
“While no single film could possibly capture the entire story of life on the Arabian Peninsula, this film provides an insightful overview of the geography, history, religion and culture that have combined to shape this region and its inhabitants,” said Fernbank curator Bobbi Hohmann. “Through dynamic programming like ARABIA, Fernbank strives to expose our visitors to the diversity of culture that exists on the planet, including people living today as well as those from the past.”
For most people, ARABIA will be a first chance to experience life in a part of the world often glimpsed solely through news clips.
“No other medium can convey the culture and atmosphere of another land as well as an IMAX® Theatre film. We spent months shooting where no cameras of any kind have ever been, so that
we could better understand this important part of the world for ourselves,” said the film’s Academy Award-nominated director, Greg MacGillivray. “I think we have brought back a fresh portrait of Arabia’s remarkable people and history, its culture based on strong family ties, its moving devotion to faith, and its struggle to balance ancient values with the modern world. This is a film full of surprises, including the surprise of how much, underneath it all, our people share in common.”
The story of ARABIA spans 2,000 years of Arabian history but is told by three vibrant, modern-day Arabian citizens, each invested in learning more about their history and culture. The film’s real-life guides are Hamzah Jamjoom, a Saudi Arabian film student at Chicago’s De Paul University who returns home to make a film about his heritage; Nimah Nawwab, a writer, poet and photographer who provides a young woman’s perspective on Arabia; and leading Arabian archaeologist Dr. Daifallah Al-Talhi, who is digging into his people’s incredible past in the lost Nabataean city of Madain Saleh.
The journey begins with Hamzah’s trek from his home city of Jeddah into the remote desert to explore his tribal roots among the Bedouins, the famously generous nomadic people who live in tent camps with their families and animals. After riding on camels and hunting with falcons, as well as encountering desert baboons, he heads to the coast where he will literally dive into another unseen realm of Arabia: the uniquely salty Red Sea. Under Arabia’s waters, Hamzah will explore a different world of dazzling coral reefs, distinctive marine life and ancient shipwrecks with stories to tell.
To better understand his people’s past, Hamzah meets up with archaeologist Dr. Al-Talhi at a site in Arabia like no other: the lost city of Madain Saleh, where soaring stone tombs cut into the cliffs and the ruins of a sophisticated oasis city have much to reveal about the origins of Arabian culture and its emphasis on trade and education. Here, in an age of enlightenment, the mysterious Nabataeans built a global center of learning, literacy, art, invention and commerce with the wealth they amassed from trading frankincense and spices with the vast Roman Empire. Largely unseen by the world, even by Arabians, Madain Saleh’s ruins come to vivid life for the first time on the IMAX® Theatre screen.
Filmgoers continue to traverse through Arabian history as the film delves into a second enlightened age of Arabia, the Islamic Golden Age, which began in the Middles Ages after the founding of the Islamic religion. CGI allows the audience to time-travel back to an extraordinary period when a vast Islamic empire made mathematical, medical, engineering and philosophical discoveries that rocked the world and paved the way for modern science and technology.
For a glimpse into current times, writer Nimah Nawab takes up the narration, as she makes a deeply personal pilgrimage to the Hajj, one of the most spiritually-charged events on the planet, when three million Muslim pilgrims make their way to the holy city of Makkah (Mecca) to reaffirm their faith. This profound experience of human communion, rarely seen by outsiders, is witnessed in all its emotions and stark humanity by the IMAX® cameras.
As the unforgettable journey of ARABIA comes to a close, a question lingers: is Arabia now in the midst of another prosperous period of transformation, a third golden age? While the future remains unwritten, Hamzah, Nimah and Dr. Al-Talhi leave the audience with much to ponder about how the desert carved the Arabian soul – and how Arabian souls are reconciling with the modern world.
ARABIA is produced and distributed by MacGillivray Freeman Films. The film is directed by Greg MacGillivray and produced by Greg MacGillivray and Mark Krenzien from a screenplay by Jack Stephens.
ARABIA shows in the IMAX® Theatre at Fernbank Museum of Natural History from March 12-July 29, 2010. Fernbank Museum is located at 767 Clifton Road NE in Atlanta. IMAX® ticket prices are $13 for adults, $12 for students/seniors, $11 for children ages 12 to 3, $8 for Members, and free (based on seating availability) for children ages 2 and under. Tickets are available at www.fernbankmuseum.org and 404.929.6400.
