Celebration buttons for Disney Vacation Club members
By Leah Zanolla
Feb 23, 2010

The celebration buttons at Disney theme parks have become even more popular since the "What Will You Celebrate?" promotion began. Now, Disney Vacation Club(DVC) members will have their own special buttons. Beginning February 26, buttons that say "Member Since" will be available for DVC members to customize with the year they joined the Club. Guests wearing these buttons will be greeted by cast members with the phrase "Welcome Home," a greeting already heard throughout the DVC resorts.

Disney is also hoping these buttons spark questions from other guests about the value of DVC membership, which would lead to "free" advertising for them.

Buttons are available in several locations. At Walt Disney World, they can be obtained from any DVC resort, DVC Information centers, and Guest Relations locations. At Disneyland, they are available at DVC Information centers, check-in at the Grand Californian Hotel, City Hall at Disneyland Park, and Guest Relations at California Adventure.

I've never been a fan of any of the buttons, so I'm not sure I'll be running to get my DVC one. Still a nice offering! :wave:

ok, isn't this one pushing the celebrate buttons? I can understand birthday... anniversary, happily ever after... but "member since" seems to be pushing it a little... (I prefer honororary citizen of the magic kingdom)

It would be even better if these DVC buttons were resort specific with a photo!

Huh. Kinda neat. Dunno how much I'd wear one though; I don't really like "flaunting" passholder/DVC/etc... just seems a bit braggy. :shrug:

But it would let those at the DVC booths to leave you alone :ROFLOL:

Call me grouchy, but the "Welcome Home" greeting gets worn out by the end of my stay. It's just enough to be welcomed home each time I enter a DVC resort--I don't think I'd want to be constantly "welcomed home" in the theme parks.

Good point. :lol: In that case, I'll wear knights armor made out of the buttons

Actually, they'd just ask your home resort, then tell you that you should add on at BLT. :lol:

 

[tiaragirl]

Interesting idea.. we'll see how that goes, hhaha.

How true!! :ROFLOL:

I too got tired of DVC sales people coming after me even after I joined DVC. Now when I see one coming up to me I say to them; "It is great to be home" and they know I am already a member and leave me alone.

 

[Biff215]

DVC seems to be stopping nowhere in their advertising. Between the buses, parks, resorts, park maps, ME video, resort TV channel, etc, it is as many say "Disney's worst-kept secret". Now they want to advertise on us??? :brick:

I love our DVC membership but it is becoming annoying even to members like us.

 

[Bork Bork]

No button for me! I just carry my DVC tote bag to hold our water and snacks in the parks. It's like the equivalent of bug repellent for the DVC kiosk CMs.

 

[Texas84]

The DVC CMs never bother me. Guess I look like a broke loser. :shrug:

Oh yeah, I'll flaunt the button!

I've already got the snazzy hat Deevy gave me on my last trip, so I'm set. :wave:
