Who's doing the "mom" contest that was announced?

[lundve]

I did!

I wrote mine in Microsoft Word first to do editing then copied and pasted into the form.

Lucky for us we are a family of four!

 

[vpalmer]

I applied too.

 

[Mrs.viv07]

i did but 100 words is to little.
I was thinking afterwards in bed, darn i should have writen xxx
oh well its done fingers crossed for someone on the dis to be choosen!

 

[amyhughes]

I think the DIS should be really well represented in the entries! There is this list, then another list that I am also on in the Community Board. Everytime I need advice I come here, or AllEars.net so the "Moms" around here really know their stuff, and this is from a former Cast Member, YOU ALL ROCK With Your Disney Info!

Did anyone else notice that it said that you must be available to travel December 8-12? Would that be for training if you won, or would that be when you and your three guests would get their free trip? I entered also. OH I HOPE THEY PICK ME!!!!!!!!

I think that it is for both - they seem to have planned the training time for then and invited you to bring your three guests who get to park hop while you are learning the . You can bet that there will be some photo ops scheduled too for the moms with and without their guests.

ps - I'm entering too!! Been thinking an writing everything down on paper before I send it in next week - after I return from POFQ with my free DDP!

 

[Desnik]

I entered too! I really hope they pick me but, I would be just as happy if any DIS'er got picked!!

 

[Disney Mommy 3]

Me! Me! I applied this past weekend and have to agree -100 words - TOUGH!! At first I thought it would be easy, but the more I typed the harder it became. Best wishes to all our applicant disers!! Hope some one from here is on the panel. I think this is such a grand idea.

 

[Hope73]

I did. I would love to help others. I plan trips for friends anyway. I always love to talk Disney

 

[pinkerbell]

Well I am enjoying this thread and laughing.

I received an email from the Disney Insider and saw it advertised there, so I signed up. When my husband got home I said, "Honey your never going to guess what I did today!" He said, "What?" I showed him my print out response of the three questions. He said, "Looks like you wrote a job application, good job!" He thought it was amusing.

BTW for the two posters who mentioned the big family angle...I used it! I tried to be nonchalant in my about family and the seven kids that are nineteen to nine months. But in all truth, planning for that varied age group was challenging. But where I did get my help from!? The dis boards of course! This is the goldmine!!!

Good Luck to all!

 

[bennythepug]

I signed up too, I know it's a long shot but hey, it keeps the dream alive to get me there sooner..........
it was *really* hard keeping it to 100 words !!!

 

[ptmmg]

I to applied. I used the angle of planning for a large famly, my kids ages 3 through 17 . I also told them how we just got back from a trip that I planned for 16 people ages 3 through 70.
good luck all!

I honestly wouldn't wait if I was you...the deadline ends when they hit 5000 entries regardless of the date.

Actually they changed it to 10,000 entries "due to overwhelming response"

 

[cdotla]

I applied too.

I agree it pays to be original as already a lot of the same themes have been mentioned by several posters.

However, it was incredibly difficult to be original in the 100 word limit for each of the 3 questions!!!

Did anyone actually mention the Disboards in their answer? I didn't, but just wondering...

 

[cdotla]

Darn! The odds against me just doubled!

[amyhughes]

I mentioned the Dis boards and helping out answering questions every day on here.

 

[kiddoc]

I applied, too! How cool would it be to be selected?!? Now it's just a waiting game. Oh, well! At least I have a trip to WDW to keep me entertained until the results come in.

 

[AngieWin]

Sent in my this afternoon!! Crossing my fingers!
