THE TOWN OF SEASIDE FLORIDA VIRTUALLY UNSCATHED BY STORM
Rentals, Merchants and Beaches Are Open

Seaside, Florida, September 22, 2004 - The town of Seaside, Florida received
only minimal damage from Hurricane Ivan last week. As of today, the town is
fully operational, with rental properties, merchants and the beach open for
business. The staffs of Seaside Cottage Rental Agency and other local
businesses look forward to welcoming guests and homeowners as usual.

In response to requests from areas affected by the storm, Seaside is
offering a limited number of significantly discounted rentals for those
families and guests displaced by the storm.

Toll-free phone service in our area is still limited so we are directing
calls to our local phone lines. For reservation information please call
850.231.1320. For operational information please call 850.231.2222.

For those coming to Seaside, please check your travel routes to confirm
street conditions. The Mid-Bay Bridge, Highways 20, 331, and Highway 98
through Okaloosa Island and from the east are open. There has been damage to
some highways west of Pensacola.

Seaside's beach is open! While the stairs of our walkover pavilions are
being currently repaired, we have designated beach access at the Seaside
Pavilion located beachside between Bud & Alley's and Roly Poly.

For any coastal community, the biggest threat during a hurricane is storm
surge and wind. The Seaside's intact dune system and stringent building
methods have once again served our town well in the face of bad weather.
