dvc and shareholders poll

[jwmccullough]

Hi everybody,
I was looking to see if anyone can provide any information on the following items:

As a DVC member (or not for that matter) are you also a Walt Disney Company shareholder?

As a DVC member, there are member perks as outlined in the quarterly magazine, do shareholders get discounts or any special perks, and if so how?

Any and all info is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
Jess

Owning DVC is distinct from owning stock in the Walt Disney Company. Currently, there are no special perks offered to stockholders. DVC does offer members a variety of perks that are always subject to change. The most up to date listing is on the DVC Member website.

As Pam mentioned, the two do not have any correlation...you can own DVC, Disney, or both. Given that we (DVCer's) tend to be Disney fanatics, I'd be surprised if the percentage of DVCer's who who own at least the 'one share hanging on the wall' isn't higher than the general population.

No discounts, but we (Disney shareholders) do get the perk of voting for or against Eisner and his buddies at the annual Shareholders meeting.

Any and all info is greatly appreciated!

Thanks!
