Wow that is neato. I might apply, but would have to do it when I get back as on Sept. 8 I will be at WDW.

Bah, I wish they'd ditch the sexist name. Dads are allowed to enter (and one of the current "moms" is a guy), so why wouldn't they call it the Disney Parents Panel?

Thank you!!

I am leaving in two weeks for the world. And I am a mom to 4!! So it looks like I meet the requirements

Thanks again!!

I think that my wife would be absolutely perfect for this! Does anyone know what will the winners will be required to do? Would it just be advising "newbies" on all things Disney? Are there any current "Disney Mom's" out their who can shed some light on this? I'm just curious.
