How about at your resort on Sunday evening? They way you wouldn't have to schlep all of your materials (lists, name tags, wristbands, etc) anywhere. We'll come to you!

Well I am up for anything. I will be there Sunday so Jason I could come to you if you want. It will be a rush if it all has to be done that morning thats for sure. I would combine both lists & than organize it by last names like merf was saying. Than split that list by as many people as you can fit at the table. Also you said you have more room at the table like I said I would be more than happy to help so just let me know. If I get stuck staying at the airport I would take a cab from there at 6:30am to head over to EPCOT or earlier if needed. Just let me know when & where & I am there.

So I have a question... if you all get approval for Sunday, I can come on Sunday to check in? I am paranoid about not getting in for the rededication, but I am now officially staying on site the night before instead of driving in, so it's less of a worry. If you need any help with organization on either day or any days even before, I am local so I am wiling to help.
Otherwise, see all you wonderful people then...

Correct, if we get approval for Sunday, we will also do sign ins at Epcot on Sunday morning, including an hour (or more) after the park opens. So yes, this would be possible.

This might have come up way back somewhere in this thread, but I'll pose the question anyway:
Has anyone thought of doing a live podcast or trip report? (if they have the technology and/or time) After all of your hard work in planning the event I know I for one would love to be able to experience as it happens it since I cannot attend. ::sniff:: But I'm sure Martin will have a wonderful video lined up after all is said and done! :lookaroun And I cannot wait to see all of the pics you guys will have!
You seriously ROCK for putting all of this together!!! :sohappy:

Just wanted to say I went back in time to Feb. when the topic was started & read about the first 25 pages or so. It is truly amazing how far this has come from 13 people to now over 500. I can't believe how much of those posts I still remember reading when they were first posted. I am surprised it took me as long as it did to post in the topic. This event is a true blessing & I am very thankful to everyone involved I am in your debt. God knows even if I do have to sleep in the airport I will be there ready for the best day of my life. I will most likely get to pay for the party later today which is the step that starts my journey of a lifetime to meet all of you on what will truly be a magical day.

Yep, we have what we are calling the "Community Corner" when podcasters and webmasters in the community can join us to talk about Epcot's 25th, past and present in a multi-podcast/website episode. Everyone will record their own material, but the rights to use it will be at the disgression of the recorder. We have at least 6 different podcasters attending for sure as of right now.
Oh and 547 attending...
I had to used my 7000th WDWMagic post to say again:
Thank you. Sincerely. To Epcot Rob who sparked the idea we could actually go to this event (and have somewhere to stay), to disneykw for telling me about a certain something, and MagliteL13 and PeepleMoovr for their help, and to Adam, Jason, Jenn and everyone else involved in making this meet (though it is far bigger now than just a `meet`) happen. This won`t be a holiday. It`ll be a once in a lifetime event.

sorry for making this so long
i would also like to thank martin. this is really the only reason i can make it. I told my wife that if someone from Manchester is making this trip then i can certainly make it from Birmingham..... after months of thinking it over, it worked. :lol: so thanks to all the europeans *cheers*
true... i didnt think of that.
like above, true dat.
ill send a self address envelop to jason and he can mail me mine. hmmmm, merf, ill get there around 5 with a large coffee. if there is tailgating involved, maybe 4. lol
hey, no one tailgates like us southerners for college football. i can EASILY justify an all nighter (red bull optional)
a cooler full of frosty beverages?
101. i signed up this morning
i had one of those once... and no, it wasnt a YUGO :lol:Sadly, the merfmobile, though having a 3rd door, has absolutely no space for people in the back.
It's more like a slightly convienent spot to put a single bag of groceries.
i would like to thank all that have organized as well. great job. im looking forward t meeting all of you.

Good idea but I won't have the wristbands in my possession until Thursday or Friday just before the event. So no time to mail!
Hopefully things will work out for a Sunday evening thing somewhere.

BTW, off subject, im looking forward to a glass of red while watching RoE. that has never happened. lol

We've got it covered (though not a huge selection, especially red!). Here's the wine list for the Dessert Party for anyone who's interested:
Columbia Crest Chardonnay
Penfold’s Rawsons Retreat Merlot
Satori Pinot Grigio
Beringer White Zinfandel

this will suffice.
What, no mad dog 20/20?:lol:

Just a note to everyone - I am going to send out Celebration 25 confirmation emails tonight to everyone who is on Adam's list for the general (free) event. This will just be an early confirmation that we do indeed have your registration. I will post here when they have been sent. (This is for the general event, not the dessert party, I'm just doing it to ease the workload for Adam.)

Jason I just payed for the party but I forgot to mention to send any e-mails to Disney_Freak429@yahoo.com instead of the pay pal e-mail.(to send the confirmation ect. to) Also I don't drink but I may just have to have a sip to toast just for the sake of EPCOT lol. Also any word yet from anyone if they will have room for me to sleep on the floor of their room?

I know that John and Lou are more than happy to work on this event. I myself am beyond words with how well this event has panned out. It is my pleasure to just be a small part of this huge occasion.
Is that included in the admission to the dessert party? I'll have to make a non-alcoholic toast that night! :lol:
Thank you again Jason for all of your hard work! :wave:

Sounds great! I hope you can also save the video so that we can look at it later too...
So anyways, I have another update! We now have 585 registered attendees (still not including Jenn or I's parties)- I think we really will pass 600! 600- three times what we originally planned for! That number is a testament to how great this event really will be in itself! Congradulations everyone! :sohappy:
