News Feed on Lucky Family 10/4 (revised thread title, correction)

[Kitty-chan]

I just saw this news feed. Interesting. I'm envious already!

(P.S. I edited the thread title to reflect the more-accurate information below. I had previously thought the prize was going to be awarded right before the news feed.)

I think this has already been won, and takes place on 10/4... Perhaps I'm recalling a different sweepstakes.

Do you remember the details on that? Somehow I haven't been able to find it, but I must have just missed it somehow.

P.S. This is from the news feed, which definitely makes it look like it's part of YOAMD, but I guess that could also be marketing hoo-haw:

This never-before offered event is the first big dream awarded as
Disney Parks launch The Year of a Million Dreams celebration.

It is a kick-off to YOAMD. There was a sweepstakes you could enter online on the Disney site. They would have already picked the winner, but no one has announced themselves as such yet. Probably legal strings attached.

I understand it is to be taped, with lots of TV PR there.

Talk about lucky duckies!

Your newsfeed has great details!

Found this on another site:

" the family was chosen over a month ago, it is the prize of the Internet Sweepstakes that was going through the MyDisneyParks.com website all summer. They won't be chosen in the park, they will be the first ones to the park on the 4th... "

Ah, that makes more sense . . . thanks for the details.
