MODERATOR CHANGES

[Pumbaa_]

I would like to share changes to the Restaurant Boards moderators

First, I want to thank Marie, @pumba for her 16 years of support. Marie has been a constant on the boards and will be greatly missed. After 16 years, she is retiring from active duty. Marie we thank you for your years of experience and friendship

We have 2 new mods joining the team!
@vettegirl and @crazy4wdw

Here is some information about our new mods

@vettegirl

I have been an active Dis member since 2007 and have actively been posting my own reviews as well as enjoying other reviews of the years. I have enjoyed sharing my knowledge of both WDW, DL and have visited both Tokyo DL and DLP dining.​

@crazy4wdw

I've been a disboard member since January 2001. My first visit to WDW was in January 1972 just after the Magic Kingdom and the initial resorts opened. I have visited WDW at least once per year since Epcot Center opened in 1982. I have stayed at almost all of the Disney resorts with the exception of the Yacht Club, Boardwalk, Grand Flo, and Pop Century. I have really enjoyed helping posters with planning their trips. I also have an interest in the history of the Walt Disney Company, especially the 1920's through the 1940's. I discovered the Epcot F&W festival during my October 2002 visit. 2016 will be my seventh consecutive year attending the festival.​

Please welcome the new mods and share best wishes to Marie on her official retirement

We hope to freshen up some of the older sticky threads and bring a new eye to the food boards. but no worries, food porn will always have a place here

Vettegirl, I think I've read some of your fabulous trip reports. Glad to have you here!

So, the new mods signed on for at least 16 years right?

 

[Twende]

Welcome to the new Mods but seriously one is able to retire from the DisBoards? How does one do that? LOL! Thanks for all your work Marie! This board has always been a place for great information!

 

[vettegirl]

Thanks Pumbaa for all your hard work

to vettegirl and crazy4wdw ​

 

[crazy4wdw]

Thanks everyone for the kind salutations!

I'm looking forward to assisting dis'ers who are planning their trips and need info regarding Disney restaurants. You'll be seeing more of me as the Epcot Food and Wine Fest begins to wind down and I return from my trip in about three weeks. I've been busy managing the "Official" thread for the Festival on the restaurant board. Please let me know if you have any suggestions or comments regarding this particular thread as I hope to improve it for the 2017 festival.
