Todd,
I reached the decision some time ago, but the finances to support it also just firmed up. So yes this is a go. I am going to DAP 2009.

Don

I need someone to ride Big Thunder with me!!

 

[Minnie&Nana]

Kathy, this sounds like fun!

 

[Justin Jett]

You can count me and my parents in, Kathy! We are big fans of Figment....althought we do miss the first generation of the attraction.

 

[MaryKatesMom]

Count us in too!

Just name the time!

Awesome!!!

Be my guest sir!
This is why I posted it.
Now for a confession.
I "borrowed" the artwork and just added the text, so I can't take all the credit.

 

[AlexDurrani]

I'll definitely be there for the Imagination meet. That will definitely put everyone in a mood for drinks.

Finally got my schedule arranged so that we can get to Epcot in time for the Peeps meet.

Looking forward to joining everyone!

Wow, I get to see you twice this year?
Double spooky if we end up neighbors at BCV, provided that's where you're
staying this time.

I forgot about the Merry Member Mixer thingie. I will gladly accept hitchhiking DISers who need a DVC member to get the free tchotchke.

When is the DVC Members mixer? We're DVC Members. I totally forgot about it. I was so into DAP planning.

Update: I found the info on the DVC site. The Merry Mixers will be on THURSDAYS and not Fridays as previously listed.

Merry Member Mixer

Celebrate the holiday season by mixing and mingling with all your Disney Vacation Club neighbors. This complimentary Member event will be held at the International Gateway entrance to Epcot® every Thursday in December from 3 to 5 p.m. Remember to bring your Member I.D. — it's required for admission.

The whole family is invited for an afternoon of festive fun, such as Disney character photo opportunities, an activity area just for kids and a merry special giveaway. We'll also be decking the halls and enjoying light refreshments.

This event is just one of the many perks of a Disney Vacation Club Membership — and our holiday gift to you.

We look forward to seeing you there!
This event is held on the first four Thursdays in December:

* December 3
* December 10
* December 17
* December 24

Thanks! I printed the list and will run it by DH to see what interests him too.

Update:12/7 meet outside the ride. We will be riding at 5 PM. I will be standing by the umbrella outside of the ride. I will be wearing a Purple tie dyed Figment shirt.


Looking forward to seeing everyone. Anyone interested in riding Journey before DATW in December for DAP? I thought of this while riding it last night. My daughter thought no one would want to ride it. Imagine the look of surprise on Pete's face when he sees how many rode it.

How about it? Any of my peeps want to join me before DATW?

See you there
