D23 Membership?

[soxyes]

I was wondering if any of you are D23 members? If so, do you find it worthwhile?

Thanks in advance!

Yes..and Yes...

I'll think the consensus on that thread was yes, if you go to DL a lot, because many of the activities (expos) are there. And the discounts related to a D23 members are numerous there. Not much happens with D23 at WDW. And if you are a couple you really each have to join to get the full benefits. It's just not for us.

Its like being a part of Disney when you are a member, plus, the magazine perks are pretty cool. If you collect pins, then being a member is also nice because there are some good pins to buy, for members only.

We have only one membership for the both of us ... and don't see any drawback. Seems most events multiple (up to 4?) registrations at the discounted member rate.

I agree. My DH and I also only have one membership. The only thing I can think of that required each participant to be a member was the Premium and Sorcerer's Packages for the 2011 Expo. This may have also been the case for the Star Wars event at DL. I think every other event has allowed the D23 member and at least one guest. -- Suzanne

Just got back from a great trip to Anaheim for the Destination D event. D23 did an amazing job on two very full days of presentations about vintage Disney parks.

They announced that they have added a second Destination D in Spring 2010, with a 2 day seminar followed by a 2 Day Scavenger Hunt. Some of the seminars will be the same (such as Weird Disney) and some will be new. If it is like the one in Anaheim, only D23 members will be able to sign up for the Destination D seminar (and bring one guest), but anyone can sign up for the Scavenger Hunt (with D23 members getting a discount on the price).

Look for further details and the dates (one presenter mentioned April) soon. -- Suzanne

Just a reminder that threads on the DVC forums need to be somewhat DVC related. Since the only connection between D23 and DVC Membership is a discount on D23 membership, special D23 event discussion should be on the Disney Collectors Board.
