Remember the Hall of Presidents Disney World attraction, where all the animatronic presidents of the United States were assembled in one area? This attraction closed for refurbishment in November of 2008, but the wait will be over on July 1st, as the newly refurbished attraction is unveiled.

Many of us remember visiting this attraction as children, but it seems like today's kids might not appreciate the slower pace of the Hall of Presidents. Yes, it's educational, but more than that, the refurbished and updated attraction is a great showcase for the animatronic technology that Disney is so famous for. And if that doesn't convince the kids, remind them that it is dark and cool in the show and they'll have a chance to rest their feet and cool off.

The updated show features every president of the United States beginning with George Washington and closes with the 44th President of the United States, Barack Obama. Along with the addition of President Obama, several other exciting changes are promised.

The Hall of Presidents originally opened in October 1971 and is located in Liberty Square.
