Sept 18 2010 WB TransAtlantic Pirates/Capt Jacks Re-Repositioning Repossession Cruise

[tig82174]

Hey everyone! Thanks for sayign nice things about the lanyards. The origianl idea camce from Ken who provided them to US on the first (Eastbound) transatlantic. Erik and I loved them so much we spearheaded the acquiring of them for the double dip I THINK Erik already posted very early on that he would head that up again and I told him I will be happy to assist again. Sooooooo, it is EALRY to be gathering inforamtion, BUT if you already want to be on the "team" who contribute to the funding of this please PM me (please do not expect me to get it off the thread--I honestly have to skim or I cannot keep up and I could easily miss someone). We will post the team names when it gets MUCH closer to sailing time and the team is all listed on the back of the nametags as well (DISnames). THANKS.

Hey everyone,

Thanks, Hadley, for jumping right on this. I am glad that everyone loved the lanyards on the Double Dip.....I did, indeed, volunteer to do them again for this cruise, too.

I will get the same lanyards only likely in a different color maybe...and I'll probalby shop around for some sturdier badge holders....the ones we got for the double dip were too thin and flimsy for my liking....and if we're going to be wearing them for a full 14 days (or in the case of us double dippers...24 days!!! ), we'll want them to stand up to wear and tear a little better.

So yes if you want to be a part of the lanyard team, then send a PM to Hadley (NHDisneylover). Being a part of the lanyard team means that once we get the list going and order the actual lanyards then all members of the "lanyard team" would split the cost evenly and then the lanyards will be our gift to our fellow cruisers. (On the Double Dip I think everyone ended up chipping in right around $25....however it depends on the number of lanyards we have to order and how many team members there are....but in the interest of space for the name badges I think we wanted last trip to keep it down to no more than 20 or 25 team members).

As for the lanyards themselves....I am going to set up a specific lanyards email account in the next week or so (once I get caught back up with real life), and then I will post the email addy. Everyone who wants to have lanyards made for them for the trip will be invited to send me an email at that account with their information (names, Dis names, room #, etc.) and I'll start getting that list going. We'll have to set a cutoff date at some point it won't need to be until much closer to the actual sail date.

Sound good?

Lanyards sound way cool! Thanks for volunteering, Erik!

Where is Shady Maple? I ask because we live in Phillipsburg (Lopatcong Twp), which is on the PA/NJ border. Our high school nickname is the Phillipsburg Stateliners.

We had a very rainy day here today. Here's hoping for better weather tomorrow and that everyone enjoys the rest of his weekend!

[mom x4 grandma x4]

you guys have really be chatting up a storm today while I was gone.It took along time to catchup.
I love the idea of lanyards. This is a new idea to me. This will be my 18th DCL cruise but that is one thing we have never done before. It sounds like a great idea


well off to do dishes
I'll check back later,

kathy

 

[DisneyVegas1]

PJ!!! Look at my signature! You rock, I won't have to walk the plank now!

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Hi everyone!
I'm Jen, and I'll be joining you on this cruise. There are five of us (so far), as Bear's Mates said already. We did the Westbound TA in August 07 and LOVED it so much we had to do it again. I think it was our favorite cruise so far. We're also booked for the final Med. September 2010 can't come soon enough!

Jen

Aboard mates ... Be sure to be adding the Cruise Banner Logo on page one or you could be risking walkin the plank

 

[DisneyVegas1]

Just seeing if the logo is there.

LOL I should have seen this on the next page ..LOL

Guess you wont be walkin the plank

Just noticed that I'm listed 2x's - once as Disneyfan68 and as Diznyfan68.

 

[Diznyfan68]

also I forgot...

the company I used to order the lanyards is www.kennyproducts.com

We get lanyards for our conventions at work...if you're interested I can find out where we get them from and send you the information. PM me if you're interested.

Thanks for the offer....but I loved working with kennyproducts. They were super easy to work with, reasonably priced, quick....just awesome, actually. I will definitely use them again for these lanyards, too, I think. I posted the link because someone earlier wanted to know what company I used (can't remember who)

Kathy, I just noticed an error that *I* made on Lisa's screename. It's spelled as follows:

scoutsmom99

Sorry about that!!!! Working on lists at 2:00 am is NOT a good idea!

 

[MagicMe]

Just wanted to add what a great time we had with the lanyards on the DD. It was so easy to tell who was from the thread and it was such a wonderful ice breaker. Everytime I saw one it was a quick opener to a conversation! And Erik, Jason and Hadley did a wonderful job getting them together and distributing them (they had their own table in the terminal!!!).


Oh and Kimberly - sorry the Buckeyes lost (to the Nittany Lions - go Penn State!!!).

 

[TheDisneyGirl02]

i hear shady maple mention all the time. i live about three hours from lancaster never been there thou. maybe someday i will have to get there.whenever

You should go for sure!

How about a DISmeet at Shady Maple Smorgasbord? It's off the PA turnpike and the food is good. They certainly have a big selection and I love their pies. Disneygirl, since this was your idea, what do you think? Shady Maple is not open on Sundays.

Bev

Bummer! They aren't open on Sundays! That really stinks! Darn work schedule! I work every Saturday, pretty much all day between my full time job and my part time CM job at the Disney Store.

I'm in any excuse to go to Shady Maple again is ok with me

I do agree with you on this one!

Okay - a PA meet would be fun! I live in Hatboro and I'm the future MIL for TheDisneyGirl02!!!

I am in for the FE and candy.
Also, on the last cruise Eric ordered lanyards and several members pitched in... I saw someone mentioned them for this cruise. I would love to help out with donations if we are doing that again. The lanyards we got for the last cruise were very neat and they were my favorite of the things I got on that trip!! The lanyards were soft and personalized with our cruise logo name and the sailing date and in the plastic sleeve, was our Dis name, real name and our logo picture ... I loved them (Thank you Eric!)

Shirley

The lanyards were so great!

Where is Shady Maple? I ask because we live in Phillipsburg (Lopatcong Twp), which is on the PA/NJ border. Our high school nickname is the Phillipsburg Stateliners.

Shady Maples is located out near Lancaster, PA. Here is the website for it:

It's funny, I know where Phillipsburg is, but I never realized it was Lopatcong Township!

It's funny, I know where Phillipsburg is, but I never realized it was Lopatcong Township!

Lopat is just one town that doesn't have its own post office, and uses Phillipsburg's. Lopat, Pohatcong, Greenwhich Twp., Bloomsbury, Alpha ... all are sending districts to Phillipsburg High School, but there is also the town of Phillipsburg.

 

[eeyorelvr10]

Aye , but it be squished ....you mights be needing to get rid of some of the other stuff in your siggy line ..LOL

- You know - I'm not sure what is up and whether its me or the DIS but I've noticed that during the day my signature is squished but at night - its all normal!

 

[Buckeye Gal]

- You know - I'm not sure what is up and whether its me or the DIS but I've noticed that during the day my signature is squished but at night - its all normal!

Is it possible your IE window size is different? For example, I hadn't had this window maximized and I saw some squished. When I enlarged it just slightly, yours was normal. Just a thought.

 

[Buckeye Gal]

....Oh and Kimberly - sorry the Buckeyes lost (to the Nittany Lions - go Penn State!!!).

Yeah....I was going to come on a post about that after the game. I do congratulate all you PA'ers.
