More details regarding DVC 1/2 hr TV show

[PalVal]

DVC and the production company that is going to be filming the "empty nest" family (that we represent) for promotional purposes are going to be treating us very well. One of the many benefits they gave us include a complimentary 2-night stay in a Bay Lake Tower's grand Villa! Our family interviews will take place there.

Plans include filming us "at play" in Magic Kingdom on Thursday, May 13th and interviews at the villa on Friday, May 14th. So if you are going to be at Magic Kingdom on May 13th, and see a camera crew (and a family of 9) - stop by and say "hi"!

Additionally, I told them about my plans of giving my original 54 year old Cinderella watch to my 5 year old granddaughter on her birthday (while we are at Disney) when I sent my application to them. I received this watch on my 5th birthday from my mother. They have arranged for a private meet and greet with Cinderella so they can film this very special family moment!

Does it get any better than this?

This sounds wonderful. Thank you for the update.

Have they agreed to provide you with more than the 30 minutes of video they'll be using for the promotion?

WOW, it sounds like it is truly going to be a once-in-a-lifetime experience, and I'm so glad that a DISer was chosen to participate. Can't wait to see the finished film (especially when your watch is presented to your granddaughter, which is going to be priceless).
