Well we know we are having a pirate night!
For those who will be in the area the night before there is a bon voyage party at Pleasure Island. :thewave:
We also know that starting in early July we can pre-book our Palo and Spa reservations (see the post a page or two back).
As for the surprises - I for one love surprises so I'm glad we aren't hearing everything.

On the 14 day Panama Canal cruise, I spoke with the Shutters manager when we were boarding the ship and I worked with him directly for our group "pirate photo". There was NO CHARGE for him to come and take the picture. I just arranged everything in advance and made sure I kept in contact with him to know we were doing it for sure so he didn't forget. He then printed about 10-15 8 x 10's of the photo and then kept restocking in Shutters since they kept running out.

Ahoy, Kay!
Welcome to the fifth edition of S.S. Member Cruise 2005 Cruise News. With less than three months to go before the start of our magical voyage, there's a hint of that salty sea breeze in the air as we dream of our four fun-filled days of adventure aboard the "Happiest Celebration at Sea!"
Don't miss the boat for exclusive merchandise
Time is running out to purchase S.S. Member Cruise 2005 event merchandise in advance of our sailing date. These exclusive items will not be sold in the onboard merchandise locations and supplies are limited, so order now before the "Happiest Celebration at Sea" sets sail. To view the entire collection (featuring shirts, hats, and more), please see the fourth edition of S.S. Member Cruise 2005 Cruise News available on the Special Events page of dvcmember.com.
Due to overwhelming response, we've extended the ordering deadline to July 29, 2005. In the U.S. and Canada, call (800) 601-8455, Mon.- Fri. 8:00 am EDT - 10:00 pm EDT or Sat. and Sun. 9:00 am EDT - 8:00 pm EDT. International Members, call (407) 566-7000.

Hundreds of Members have participated in past group photos, and it takes a little time to coordinate such a large group. Preparations will begin promptly at 10:00 am, and all participants need to be available for up to 30 minutes while our photographers work to capture the moment perfectly. See you there!

Submit your digital treasures to us and you could be the lucky family selected!

There's no cost to participate in the contest.

Look who's joining us aboard the S.S. Member Cruise 2005
Rebecca Godsil, a 2005 Walt Disney World® Ambassador, will host entertaining interactive presentations aboard the Disney Wonder as part of our Guest Speaker Series. A California native, Rebecca so enjoyed her family's yearly Disneyland® vacations that she dreamed of a Disney career. In 1999, she became a Cast Member at the Disneyland Resort, later joining the Walt Disney World Resort family in 2003. During her presentation, Rebecca will share the history of the Ambassador program, created by Walt Disney himself in 1964, its evolution, and her involvement in recent events surrounding the Happiest Celebration On Earth.
Rebecca is also scheduled to attend our special "Bon Voyage Party" on September 3, 2005. For details about this pre-sailing event, please see the fourth edition of S.S. Member Cruise 2005 Cruise News on the Special Events page of dvcmember.com.
Set aside space in your suitcase for a special pin
We've created a limited-edition pin exclusively for Members sailing aboard the "Happiest Celebration at Sea." While its design won't be unveiled until September 4, 2005 (once the Disney Wonder reaches international waters and the merchandise locations open), anticipation for this very special pin is already growing. A valid Member ID Card is required at the time of purchase.
Vacation Magic Presents: A Conversation with Jim Lewis

Member Cruise 2005, you'll have the opportunity to meet Jim as he shares stories about his family, his Disney career, and his experience as the senior leader of Disney Vacation Club.
Jim will also respond to Member questions during this session. If you have a question for Jim, simply submit it via e-mail.We hope to include as many of your questions as time allows.
What's in a name?
In the next few weeks, we'll be mailing you a request to tell us how you'd like your name to appear on personalized items that may be given to you when you arrive at Port Canaveral. If you prefer to use a nickname, middle name, or alternate spelling of your first name (as currently associated with your reservation), please let us know. The mailing will feature an address for a special web page on dvcmember.com for you to provide us with this information.
If you've booked reservations for a non-Member, or you are not yet a Member but will be sailing with one, please ask the Member who booked your reservation to provide us with your preference.

Good morning, Georgie. Yea, you got also. 9:45. Someone worked late.
HOW ARE YOU TODAY. LET me know, please. Today is much better for me. Thank goodness. Had I stayed, they would probably have admitted me and I "saved" that one. LOL
