Just came across this and although I haven't read every posters post yet- I will, truly I will- I am curious if it hasn't been asked already- Since this is officially Summer Time I guess the CMO duties have been fairly easy for you to do - As school starts to approach, Are you still a Band Director? Is it HS or College? What will happen w/ the flexibility that you have? I think this was awesome for you to have had the opportunity to do - Do you think, or do you know what the future holds? For you I mean- I hope they take the Year of Dreams forward- It seems that it has added a special "punch" to Disney's already very Magical atmosphere.- Keep up the good work!
I'm really glad you found the thread! Thanks! I can't wait to hear what you think about what I've been able to post so far. I should still have several more trips to come as CMO, and I'm looking forward to the opportunity to share them with everyone here.
As for your questions . . . no, I'm no longer a band director. I work full-time as Director of Music and Fine Arts for a large church north of Pittsburgh, PA. My schedule is pretty consistently busy year-round (funny thing about Sunday's happening every week! ) but they have been wonderfully accomodating and we seem to be able to work the schedule out with regards to each trip so that everyone wins!
And, I couldn't agree more about The Year of a Million Dreams. It has been a wonderful addition to the already incredible experiences we can have in the Disney Parks. I can't predict what the future will hold, but I can assure that a Disney vacation will always be a magical and dream-filled adventure!
