Disney Legend to Speak at D23 Event
The following Press Release is from Intrepid Traveler about the Disney Legend and author Charlie Ridgway speaking at D23's Destination D event in Walt Disney World along with information on the event itself:
Lake Buena Vista, Fla. – Disney legend Charles Ridgway will take part in D23’s Destination D: Walt Disney World 40th event scheduled for May 14 and 15 at Disney’s Contemporary Resort in Lake Buena Vista, Fla.
Charlie was a part of WDW from its inception, serving as press agent for the “Mouse Houses” for 40 years. He worked at Disneyland for seven years before moving on to Walt Disney World and was also involved with the Disney properties in Paris and Hong Kong. He details his experiences in Spinning Disney’s World: Memories of a Magic Kingdom Press Agent, published by The Intrepid Traveler.
According to its sponsors, Destination D is the only public celebration of Walt Disney World’s milestone celebration. D23 members will be taken on a journey that begins with the purchase of the first parcels of land in Central Florida in 1964 through the opening of Epcot Center in 1982.
Charlie will be joined by other Disney notables including Marty Sklar, Bob Gurr (who shared the stage with Ridgway on the Podcast 2.0 Disney cruise last December), Jack Lindquist, Tom Nabbe, Bob Mathieson, Orlando Ferrante and Ron Logan, along with Debra Browne, the 1971 Walt Disney World Ambassador to the World.
They will all take part in two days of special entertainment, retrospectives, screenings of rare and newly discovered film and TV footage, archival displays and presentations. There will also be a special exhibit from the Walt Disney Archives featuring items and artifacts that document the creation and evolution of Walt Disney World Resort.
Charlie will sit on a panel titled “Making the Magic Happen.” He and other Disney legends will talk about life during the opening of the Magic Kingdom through the debut of Epcot Center, describing the challenges, misadventures, creativity and excitement from those who carried out Walt Disney’s dream in Florida. Charlie will also be available to autograph copies of Spinning Disney’s World.
The highlight of the weekend will be a concert, “Magical Journeys: A Flight of Fancy Through 40 Years of Walt Disney World Musical Memories,” featuring Richard M. Sherman, Academy Award winner and another Disney legend.
D23 is the official Disney Fan Club offering unique experiences, special events, collectibles, a quarterly publication, Web site and opportunities to meet others who share a love of Disney. D23 offers fans an insider look at everything Disney: the parks, animation and stage shows, television and film, and the treasures of the Walt Disney archives. “D,” of course, stands for Disney and 23 marks 1923, the year Walt Disney arrived in California and founded his company.

2009 in Review
What a year, what a year!!! This has been a huge year in the World of Disney (and no, I don't mean the store). This year has brought us what I would like to call "The Good, the Bad and the Ugly".
"The Good": One huge good thing I would say would be the introduction of D23. This club was a great addition to the Disney Company. While I do believe that the club is slightly o
verpriced, I believe the perks that you get from a membership are completely worth it. In connection with D23, the major D23 Convention in September was another "Good". The experiences provided at that convention had never been seen before from Disney and there were some amazing announcements, including some of the other "Goods", including then announcement of the Fantasyland Overhaul, Star Tours 2, Cruise Line Announcements and so much more! This convention had many exciting and big pluses for this year.
This year's celebration and promotion "What Will You Celebrate?" seemed to come as a good success to Disney. Not as big as the "Year of A Million Dreams" maybe, but it still seems that many took advantage of the Free admission on your birthday or at least the "Birthday Fun Card". As for this coming year's celebration, "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day"...Well, I'll get to that in a little bit.
I cont
inue with the good by mentioning the return of The Muppets to popularity! From being a part of the new Disney celebration, to the rumors of a future refurb of MuppetVision 3D, to their hilarious Youtube videos, you cannot deny that the Muppets are back and ready for action! Definitely what I would call a "Good".
My final mention is the return of hand drawn animation to the Disney Company with the movie release of The Princess and The Frog. This movie not only brought back an art thought lost by computer animation, but also brought a new princess to the collection to be loved by all!
"The Bad": In some way, this category should be called "The Tragic". Many tragedies befalling the Disney Company this year. They say that things come in 3's and that was certainly pro-+by+Chris+Reid.jpg)
ven over the summer! First was that terrible monorail crash that killed a driver named Austin right after the 4th of July. A few weeks later, we had the sudden death of an actor named Mark Priest, who died after a fall he had while doing the Pirate Tutorial in Magic Kingdom. The third would be the accident during the Indiana Jones Epic Stunt Spectacular practice that killed one of the actors of that show. Three tragedies that hit the company in less that 2 months.
Unfortunately, this would not be all of the deaths that the Disney family would have to endure this year. The final blow for the year came just a mere 2 weeks ago with the death of the beloved Roy E Disney. Crucial in many decisions in the Disney Company since the death of his uncle and father, Roy cared deeply about the family business and took pride in seeing that Disney kept the quality it has always been known for. He will be sorely missed.
The safely of the transportation has been questioned this year in Disney. Between the monorail crash, bus problems and a total monorail shutdown just the other week, it has many people worried, wondering if it is alright to use and questioning whether it is worth using. I personally think such issues can happen to anyone and it is just a bigger deal because it happened to Disney.
"The Ugly": There were some pretty ugly things that happened in regards to Disney, though we hat
e to admit it. The first would be the collapse of Stitch's Supersonic Celebration in Tomorrowland. While Stitch is cute and fluffy (though I know some people that would disagree on that), his show that lasted a mere 6 weeks is what I would definitely call "Ugly". They did not plan well for the show and spent a lot of money on something that will probably not get used often. A big blunder on Disney's part.
Another "Ugly", also from Tomorrowland, would be the new audio for the Tomorrowland Transit Authourity. The Space Mountain Refurb went pretty smoothly from what I know, but all did not go well with the TTA. The audio has been changed with a new voice and new sayings. The audio has been described by many as just downright boring! There is no talk whatsoever in Space Mountain and the famous reference to Tom Morrow has been cut completely, angering many veteran guests. It's really a shame.
The final under the "Ugly" category is Captain EO. Well ok, this is more of a personal preference for the "Ugly" category...let me explain. I do not know much about Captain EO, what I have seen seems very cheezy, I am not sure it will really work for today's audience and the only reason they are bringing it back is because of the outcry that was given for its return after Michael Jackson's death. I personally find this a ridiculous reason to bring back an attraction. There was no outcry for the Walter Cronkrite audio for Spaceship Earth after his death, why bring this back?
The fate of Sounds Dangerous in Hollywood Studios: This is pretty self explanatory. An attraction on seasonal operation, closed for 11 months and opens just in these last 2 weeks planning to close again on the 2nd of January...why waste the space on it? If you are going to close it Disney, just do it! There are not too many people who will miss it, honest!
Studio Backlot Tour: This is supposedly going down for refurb in February to reopen again in March, but there are many rumors flying around that when it does go down, it will not come back. Ideas and concept art for a Monsters Inc. roller coaster have been circulating for a while online and it is utterly convenient that Backlot happens to be located smack at the end of Pixar place.
Fantaslyand Overhaul: Yea, we know, its happening, but when?? I would absolutely
love to see a timeline for this. It is just a little broad for people when you say by 2012. I know I would like to know what will be closed, if anything, on my trip in June. The railroad is scheduled to be closed in 2010 for a few months because of this overhaul, but we don't know when yet. Will I be able to see Mickey and Minnie's house for the last time on my trip in June? Even just a brief idea of what is going to be tackled first would be great to have!
Marvel/Disney: I did not put this acquisition in the 2009 part because I am not honestly sure if this is good, bad or ugly. I will be very interested to see if anything happens with this combination in 2010.
Monorail/Transportation Safety: I will assume that Disney is and will be taking a good hard look at what happened this year in the way of Transportation around the park and will look into some safety features and updates that are needed to ensure that calamities like this year do not happen again.
So much of this and more is to happen in 2010, the only word of advice that can be followed is words from the great Walt Disney himself: "Keep Moving Forward!"
Thank you all so much for reading this blog and giving me the feedback that you do! It really makes it enjoyable to write and I hope you will continue to come here to The True Disney Fan for Disney news in 2010!

This finally brings us to the future segment:
What Awaits us in 2010???
What will happen with Captain EO: They are closing Honey I Shrunk the Audience in California on the 4th of January to bring this back in February and I cannot wait to see what happens to this attraction. It is suppose to only be a limited engagement...it will be interesting to see exactly how limited.What Awaits us in 2010???

Awesome D23 Gift!!!
It is my official opinion that D23 is definitely worth the money!!! With all of the amazing things that came in my official D23 package that I got last week, I thought it was. But the package that came in the mail on the 6th made it even moreso!
Inside a small tube, there was a letter, a Certificate of Authenticity and this poster:
This was the gift from the Walt Disney Studios Archives, with an official seal and all! It was a huge poster and, though I am keeping it safe in the tube now, it will definitely be hanging on the wall in my home one day! It is just such a treasure! If you were second guessing getting D23, I would highly recommend it!

D23 Has Arrived!!!!!!!
So last Thursday, I received the packet I have been waiting for since Chris Reid announced the big surprise a few weeks ago. A thin, white box with my name on it arrived at my house with the label D23 on it! As I promised I would, here are the pictures of what I received in that box!
Upon opening the box, this envelope met my eyes...
Beat the heat??
This was the Walt Disney Archive gift I received- A replica of a fan that was handed out to visitors to Disneyland in 1955! The artwork on the fan is gorgeous!!!
The package of goodies, with the welcome letter on top!
Another welcome letter from Bob Iger. Yea, that's right, D23 member are on first name basis with Bob!
My certificate!!! The artwork is amazing!
The summer issue of Disney Twenty-Three
I think this is a window sticker for my car...too bad i don't have a car....
My membership card!
And I'll end this with a picture of me with my certificate and magazine!

Its coming!!!...slowly, but its coming!!!
I have gotten questions from several people wondering if I have gotten the D23 membership information that was so generously given to me by Chris Reid of the Tiki Room Morning Show. The answer is, finally, YES!!!!....sort of.
Yesterday, I received a folded pamphlet with my official membership card! Inside the pamphlet, it said that I had been given the gift of a D23 membership and that in 1-2 weeks I will be receiving my certificate, welcome letter and first issue of Disney twenty-three. Sometime after that, the special gift from the Walt Disney Archives Collection should be coming separately.
So, after a long and anxious wait, I finally know when this awesome gift will be arriving! As soon as it does, I will be immediately be writing and putting up pictures about it, including pictures of the pamphlet and membership card, so stay tuned!

Dreams Do Come True!
So I was just wandering around the internet yesterday afternoon, minding my own business, when I decided to check my Twitter account. I go to my home screen and my feed is covered-and I mean COVERED-in people wishing me congratulations. I was scrolling down, staring at the screen trying to figure out what the HECK all of these people were talking about when I see this post from my friend, @Tikiroommorning:
The first-ever TRMS Disney Dream Come True!!! Announced at: http://bit.ly/TS2oY
I stare blankly at this for a moment, wondering what on earth it could be. I don't remember Chris announcing anything on his show, the Tiki Room Morning Show, about this. So I click on the link and this picture comes up on it:
Naturally, I was pretty darn speechless! I read it over a couple times, just to make sure I was reading it right and just teared right up! I could not believe that someone would want to give me something this awesome!!! I sent Chris a message and preceded to thank him about 50000 times! There is no way that I could fully express my surprise and gratitude for this gift! I am sitting here now, writing this, still not being able to find the words to express how happy this has made me!
Since I have joined Twitter and started this blog, I have met sooo many amazing people and I just want to say thank you to you all now for being such amazing friends and being there for me when I needed you guys! The road has been very rough recently, but I know that if I have a problem, I can go to all of you and you will know what to do or how to make me feel better. Thank you from the bottom of my heart!!! <3 style="text-align: center;">To follow Chris Reid on Twitter, click here.
