457.0. "Getting Together for WDW's 25th Anniversary" by WREATH::SCOPA () Wed May 03 1995 10:57

    I know there's a "Getting Together" note but I thought with the
    Walt Disney World Silver Anniversary approaching it may be helpful
    to have a note that lists the times when people are planning to attend
    WDW during this celebration.
    
    The 25th Anniversary celebration will take place between 1-Oct-1996 and
    1-Oct-1997. There will be special happenings during that twelve month
    period.
    
    So if you're planning to go and would like to meet with some other
    noters here's the place to record your dates.
    
    Hey....you never know...this could be the start of another Birthday
    Bash.

	I'm planning on going from May 10 to May 24.  The dates are
	when I'd like to go.  Still have to everyone else to agree to
	it.

	I'm willing to meet for a shake at Beaches N Cream.  If I'd want 
	to go anywhere else my first night my husband would pass out.

We are definitely going; but haven't set a date.  We attended the 15 and
20 year celebrations and (if it's possible) there's even more magic in
the air.

I like your dates, Mike -- I would get to celebrate WDW + my birthday too.
I suppose it's not too early to make a reservation, eh?

We're planning on going down during school break in April, which looks to me
might be April 18-26, 1997.  (709 days)  Does anyone know when Patriots Day 
in MA is celebrated in 1997?  (Is it always the 3rd Monday in April?)

    Booked the last week in July 1997 a week ago.  This way I'll start
    putting the money away early.  This will be the first big Disney trip
    for the kids (going this June for a couple days on my way to visit dad
    in Boca Raton).

457.6Wouldn't miss it!KAMALA::DREYERMore great memoriesThu May 18 1995 22:0413
We'll be there the first week in Oct.  We go every three years or so.  Many
of you will say I don't really "do Disney" since we stay in our off-property
time share.  I'll admit I'm not into it as much as alot of people in here are,
but I do love it!  I also love Busch Gardens and it's excellent roller coasters,
Sea World, MGM, Universal...even enjoyed Gatorland!

I'm really psyched about the 25th, we'll probably have friends go with us
because we have a 2 bedroom, three full bath unit that sleeps 6.  It's fun
to go with others as well as alone.  Anyway, I'll try to stay current reading
this file so I can get a clue as to what we need to make early reservations
for!

457.7Can't wait!!!!!APACHE::TANCRETIFri Jun 02 1995 14:304
We'll be there. 2 weeks in Apr 97. Have been there for the 10th, 15th and 20th.
Can't miss a major birthday.

457.8Yup, we're booked for Oct.6-20th, 1996!LJSRV1::KELLYKelly Richardson 223-3174Fri Jun 02 1995 16:5533
       We'll be there too!  We have booked our stay at Fort Wilderness from 
       Oct. 6th thru Oct. 20th, 1996!!  Can't wait.  On last count we have 
       15 people going for the entire 2 weeks and an additional person 
       joining us for a long weekend.  It'll be to celebrate our twin's
       7th birthday and our brother-in-laws/sister's 10th anniversary.
       I read down there that the kids can be in a parade on their 
       birthday if we sign them up ahead of time too.
        
       We just came back from Disney as well.  Yes, my husband is very much
       addicted to Disney.  We scraped our wedding plans up here last year
       and relocated the wedding to the Polynesian Sunset Point right on 
       the premises.  It was just perfect and there are no words that really
       describe just how beautiful getting married there was!  We were married
       on May 7th, 1995 and stayed for 9 days total.  Unlimited entrances to 
       all the parks for all of us and we had a blast!  It was my first
       time there in 10yrs and our 5-yr old twin's first trip.  They enjoyed 
       MGM's Tower of Terror and the pools at the resorts the best.  My son 
       was never even scared of the Tower of Terror ride!  In the pictures 
       we're all screaming and he is just sitting there, almost like he was
       just riding on a normal elevator!  He kept wanting to ride it again
       and again and again!
     
       We stayed at the Poly for 4 nights and the rest of the time at the
       new Wilderness Lodge.  We were all really disappointed in the Poly
       and much more pleased with the Lodge.  Just the attitude of the 
       employees between the two places made the difference and the Poly 
       seemed to be in need of some upkeeping.  Bed spred's, etc. were all
       very faded, etc.  The Lodge, on the otherhand, was magnificent.
         
       Total this time to Disney was 12, and it IS so much more fun with a
       bunch a friends and family!  I can't wait till the Oct. '96 trip!
