What Year Did You First Join DVC?

[RobDoc]

Since this poll has nothing to do with helping someone make a DVC purchase, it is more suited to the DVC Planning Board. There are a maximum of 12 poll options, so the early years are combined

What Year Did You First Join DVC? We joined in June, 1993 and have never regretted the decision. As with many, we wish we had joined sooner!

It is a companion poll to:

How Many DVC Points In Your Initial Purchase?

How Many Points Do You Own?

How Many Resorts Do You Call Home?

Took the tour and then waited almost a year before we decided to join. Then 2 years for our add on.

2003 for us and loving it! Went back "Home" for the first time last Thanksgiving and was able to treat my parents to a trip to WDW rather than the other way around. Bought our first add-on earlier this year and now have 2 trips planned in the next few months.

Gotta love WDW and DVC!!!

We bought in 1998. It was a good year for us, but that year is not included in the poll.

 

[Towncrier]

1995 - Just before the free pass program ended. Boy do we miss that perk.

We were at WDW in 1993 and I saw the DVC kiosk at Dixie Landings, but I never stopped to ask any questions. We ended up buying sight unseen in 1995.

 

[Credit Man]

2000 for us.

1996- my kids are now 19 and 14 and wow I have so many memories of them growing up at the DVC resorts- went to the food and wine festival in October without them for the first time and my DH and I had a blast!!

We joined in 2002 after staying at the Disney Institute. Went on the tour the last day of our trip and joined 3 days later after getting home and realizing we needed to visit again, soon! We have NEVER regretted joining, just wish we had known about it sooner.
