You could try calling recruiting.

I'm hoping (A LOT!) that I'm going to get into the Summer Alumni Program. I already plan on accepting the May 21st date, which is also the same date as a P&P. My question is: will I be able to check in on May 21 and still go to that P&P? I figure that all I'll need is a property ID and enough money to buy a ticket, but are there random housing meetings and such that I'm forgetting about?

I can live without groceries and other logical items for the day, I just want to go back to one of those parties.

(My first day of work in Spring '07 happened to be a P&P night, and since I had never been to the World before my CP/missed parades on the weekend before I started, the "Enchanted Adventures Parade" was the first I ever saw on property. And I went to 4 of the parties before the end of my CP, so I'm a bit nostalgic. )

You should be able to. There is just a housing meeting during the day, but the night should be available.

I plan on doing one or two P&P as well.

Pirate and Princess Party. It's a special event at the MK.

Thank you! I had a feeling you'd know the answer to my question.

I'd love to do more than one, but I figure I'll take them one at a time right now. Here's hoping!

You're welcome.

What role do you want to do this summer?

 

[Salukfan]

I'd prefer Custodial, though I checked both of them. It'll be... different, anyway. You did Custodial, right?

Yes. I did custodial last summer at Epcot WS.

I hope to do QSFB at either one of the water parks or MK (Casey's or Ice Cream Parlor hopefully).

I'd love to do World Showcase or Main Street (I miss seeing Spectromagic every night!)

Mmm, I miss Casey's. I used to change and head over there on my breaks sometimes. Also, I just about had that cartoon-loop memorized from all the time I spent in Emporium's Hall of Champions.

I loved being at WS. It was great getting to see Illuminations, as well as all the shows around the world.

you can change on your breaks and go into walt disney world??

 

[Joanna71985]

No. I saw them while I was at work. Great way to pass the time.

I don't think we were supposed to, but I snuck out on my breaks sometimes. I went over to Casey's and got lunch a few times (I worked at the Emporium). On two other occassions, I went out and did stuff. Once I went shopping for something at Pirates Bazaar and once I went out and saw PhilharMagic.

This may be against the rules, I'm not quite sure.

GOSH! HOW long was ur lunch??

 

[Salukfan]

It depended on what I did. When I stocked, I usually took an hour break; on those shifts, I could go over to Philhar or Adventureland or whatever. When I had a half (when on register), I'd sometimes change and go to Casey's, but I'd usually just eat stuff from the breakroom.

Hey thanks! Glad to hear someone enjoys it, I'll be adding a couple posts every week, things that I think would be useful to anyone thinking about doing these programs.

Chris, I must say your blog is really informative and interesting. I'm definitely bookmarking this!!!

When do you find out what character you're friends with if they don't tell you in that letter? Is it when you actually get to the program?

Joanna already touched on this - put I found out in my offer letter what my main character was based on the height range - I'm Pluto height. You then find out who all is in that height range once you get down there.

Oh cool! So if I'm a character in Mouse height (I am as far as I know, from what I've seen on various places - I'm 4'9"), will I be assigned to just one character in that height range or do you switch around sometimes?
