    This seems to be tied in to a new theme (replacing Year of a Million Dreams) starting 1/1/09 according to Mousesavers.com:

    That info has been floating around the web for a few weeks now. I think I first read it at WDWMagic.com.

    In case you can't tell by reading, it was sent to people who used to be part of the College Program. Sort of a way of temporarily drawing them back into the Disney family to help with these regional presentations.

    I haven't gotten caught up on the New York presentation from today. Was there any mention of these events? They start in a few days so it seems like Disney should be starting to market them to the general public.

    I'd love to go to the NY event but I can't find any details on it other than the date. Anyone know where I can get more information?

    Since I haven't browsed the boards since last Friday, I may have missed this info somewhere else, but I was told on Tuesday by a DVC rep that they would be opening a center in NY (and I think maybe somewhere else) like the Doorway to Dreams in Chicago.
    Sophia: “The race was underway. I start off slow. I’m cagey, like a panther, but when the time is right I pounce! The crowd is on its feet: ‘Sophia! Sophia!’ I could see the finish line; it was only 200-300 yds away. And then, it happened—what every runner dreads. I hit the wall.”

    Dorothy: “Ah, ma, you ran out of steam?”

    Sophia: “No, I actually hit a wall. They put up a new Wendy’s on Collins Ave.”

    I found a website that is supposed to have information on the tours:

    www.disneyparkscelebrations.com

    Not much there yet.

    Unless it's a complete waste of time--or very inconveniently scheduled--I will try to make the one in Detroit.

    I saw that site last night and I agree--not much there at all. I guess we'll have to wait until they announce more details.
