GOH badge

[BongoBetty]

I read an earlier thread about a young girl wearing a GOH badge interacting with a walking tree in AK. My daughter is now very keen to wear one but I hadn't even heard of it until now. Can someone explain what it is and how to get one.

Many thanks.

You can see and order a badge here:
Gifts of a Lifetime

If you wait until arrival, I'm pretty sure you can still get them at the 5 and Dime at MGM Studios, as well as the Days of Christmas store in DTD.

E-mail jane at gifts of a lifetime now. She may hve it at your hotel for you as a "check-in surpise" for your DD.

I am convinced Jane works 24/7, I am sure you'll get a reply right away.

Enjoy the trip

The concierge at BC picked one up for me to have on arrival - it came from the shop at MGM and it was $7.50.

That was my daughter with the tree! Anyway, if you buy them yourself upon arrival, they are only $5.95, engraving included. We arrived at WDW in late afternoon and spent the evening at DTD - my mission was to obtain the badges. Go to the very back of the Christmas store (to the right of the Rainforest Cafe). They will engrave if needed while you wait. I waited about 10 minutes on a pretty busy evening. These things are awesome - my DD's were greeted by name by lots of characters, CM's, etc. I also think we were chosen to be "First Family" of the day on the Safari at AK because of them! Now the badges are in a special spot on the bulletin boards in their rooms - a great memory! Have FUN!!!

GOH badges are cool, we had the CM talking to DD like they knew her and the funniest part is other guests were asking us questions. If your daughter's name is Hannah, I can hook you up with one, otherwise I would try to get a fellow DIS'er to pick you one up and mail it to you. Gifts of a Lifetime charges a large shipping fee, more than the cost of the badge if I remember correctly.

Paid 5.00 for three at Christmas store at Downtown Disney. My 5yo didn't want to wear it. My other two youngest did. One cast memter called my 8yo by name. that was it.

My wife thought the were a waste of money. We'll see what happens with them next trip.

Maybe I'll get one for myself.
