Hi Everyone! This is my first go round with the Mom's Panel so I am trying REALLY hard not to get my hopes up! Hopefully they will like my take on things. It's so hard to answer those questions in less than 100 words! Does anyone have any idea what kind of questions they ask if you make it to round 2?
In case anyone is interested.. Our podcast just put out an episode about what the Moms Panel Application process is like for rounds 1, 2 and 3. You can find it at MouseQuestPodcast.com under Podcast or download it from iTunes for free. Just look for MouseQuest Podcast.

Since we are all going to be anxiously waiting here for the next few weeks, let's get to know each other!
Here are some basic questions:
1. Where do you live?
2. What's your favorite Disney character?
3. If you could meet Walt and ask him one question, what would it be?
4. What special talents you think the Moms Panel could benefit from by having you as a panelist?
1 My name is Mary and I live in Chicago. As a matter of fact, I've lived in the same neighborhood of Chicago for my entire life!
2 My favorite Disney character is Mickey!
3 I would ask Walt what he thinks of his legacy - what is he pleased with, what is he not happy with.
4 Special talent? Well, I've traveled with all age groups. My son is 11 and we took him to WDW at 6 weeks old. I've traveled with a large family group (19 of us!), with my mother-in-law (older), my stepsons and their kids. So I'd like to think I have a perspective for all ages!

Hey y'all! I'm joining in here for the first time. Anxiously waiting to hear something, but I couldn't imagine a better bunch to be waiting with!
1. I'm Jennifer and I live in central Alabama (about 11 hours from WDW).
2. My favorite Disney character is Goofy - because that is who I am most like!
3. I would ask Walt what he thinks about the new expansions and what else he would plan for the future.
4. I am an extensive planner. I constantly research all aspects of a Disney vacation from dining ressies, resorts, tickets, and packages. I love to plan for a Disney trip, even if it is a couple of years before we go. I have planned trips for not only us, but for friends as well.
Good luck to everyone who applied!!!
I've applied several times and never made it past Round 1. I have a successful career, a wonderful husband, 3 amazing children, and a great life. I've been to Disney 4 times in 2013 and recently became a DVC owner. While I think it would be totally awesome to be on the Moms Panel, I hope everyone remembers that being rejected is not personal! Every year I see people devastated by rejection. I know it's disappointing but it's truly not a commentary on your Disney knowledge or love nor does it reflect poorly on all of your good personal qualities. Most of us will be rejected. I've not saying that we shouldn't all get excited to apply this year but I hope we all keep this in perspective. (And, yes, I'm always a little disappointed when I get that rejection email but I try to keep it in perspective.)

Just wanted to stop by and wish all applicants to the Disney Parks Moms Panel luck and extra pixie dust! It's an amazing, once-in-a-lifetime experience. Can't wait to see who will be joining the Moms Panel family in 2014!!!

So if my reading is correct, Round 1 submissions are in, so now we start a play I like to call;
THE WAITING GAME!
We are in Act 1. Lots of fun. I get excited for you guys, so I hope you are having fun with it too.
Lots of luck to all!

The pick what? 20 people out of about 5,000 applicants? That is like 1/2% chance of getting in. You probably have better odds at getting struck by lightening.

20 people out if 14000-20000 applicants. It's crazy pixie dust that gets you on the panel!
