Lanyard Status:
Still taking orders for lanyards and badge reels.
Waiting on a reply from DCL regarding the political correctness of the lanyard design - trying to make sure it doesn't violate any copyrights or trademarks.
Waiting on a sample of the badge holder from the vendor to make sure its a good fit for the key to the world card.

Timeline: Would like to get the lanyard order in before June 15th latest. Which means I need everyone's payment prior. If we end up changing the lanyard design again, I will need re-confirmation from everyone that you still plan on buying the lanyard before I start collecting money. We need a minimum order of 100 lanyards.

Payment: Please don't send money now since I would like to get the lanyard design settled first. I prefer payment via paypal (can't accept funds from an upgraded paypal account cause I get charged fees) but will take a check. For info coming when we get the lanyard design settled.

Ok so far I have the following interest and vote on lanyard Design:

Lanyard Design Options (by formerCPer)

Design E is the Winner!

Cost for lanyard design E will be about $3.00
It comes with a badge holder: http://www.kennyproducts.com/Merchant2/merchant.mvc?Screen=PROD&Store_Code=KPI&Product_Code=372
To add a badge reel http://www.kennyproducts.com/Mercha...en=PROD&Store_Code=KPI&Product_Code=425-blank, will be another $1 per badge reel.
I was thinking of ordering once I get everyone's payment and bringing them to Barcelona or the DIS meetup to pass out.

Please note: I called the lanyard maker and DCL regarding the design of these lanyards and if there were any copyright or trademarked problems. Both told me they were OK with it since we are using them for personal use and not selling them (thats why I need your payment first before I put the order in). Although DCL said that the design is OK, they said there is a small chance that guest services may request that we not wear the lanyard (I guess if the Disney police are onboard). ETA: I have since emailed DCL a picture of the lanyard design to get another confirmation that the design is OK. No word yet.

I posted this on the previous page, but in case you haven't seen. Some people were confused on how things attach together. Hopefully, this will clear it up:

Here is the lanyard with the badge holder (except ours will be vertical)

Here is the lanyard with badge reel (except ours will come as two pieces: a lanyard with J hook (as shown in the above pic). Each badge reels has a belt clip in back. The J hook hooks on the belt clip of the badge reel. See the little tab on the badge reel? That will snap onto the top of the badge holder. The badge holder will hold your Key to the World card. The badge reel is not heavy duty. It is a light string and is made to hold the weight of your badge holder.

LynnTarrant, you are still in the same place. Just a couple more posts and you'll move up.

[WebmasterMaryJo]

Apparently, word has gotten out about Lynn

 

[kidcoos3]

Kyla - thanks for everything you've done - we really appreciate it!!
Can't wait to get our lanyards!

Lyn - no "e" did you get 'tagged' as a cheater? If so - your as bad as I am - learning a new trick every week!

 

[eeyorelvr10]

AND....you all are making it hard to catch up - enough to make a girl want to 'cheat' but that's already been done!

Well since we are trying to raise our posts - a bit OT -

We had a great weekend at Hershey for my dd's Cheerpower competition. They came in first in their division. (Fri. - Sun.)

This Saturday - we have a CYO Archdiocese track meet in the long jump. She had come in third but someone can't go so she is up next - the good news - which makes it Disney related, is that if she qualifies here - we get to go to WDW -

Trust me, I won't need any convincing to go regardless of wether it's a good idea moneywise right now - I am going - did I say I, - I meant we are going.

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Can't remember if I posted these here - if not - then here you go - if so - sorry! Groundhog moment!


Laura with the Magic in the background! 5/13/07 5:26 pm - she's leaving late

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Here is a close up (as near as I can get with a wide angle lens (forgot my telephoto lens) of the MED Transatlantic crossing sign:

OK - somehow that looks better on my screen - maybe cause I shrunk it - very clear on my laptop can even zoom in and see some faces!

 

[eeyorelvr10]

And last one before I go to dinner:

This was the reason I left for WDW. This is a mini-reunion of our tablemates of the 11 Nighter back in Sept. 1 Couple is from the UK, 1 from GA and 1 from MS. And me the fifth wheel - from CA.

However, as I wrote in the past somewhere - you meet the nicest people on cruises.
