The Walt Disney World fans who helped spur the company into holding a 25th anniversary celebration for Epcot last fall are at it again, organizing as a nonprofit organization and setting their sights on a 10th anniversary celebration for Disney's Animal Kingdom theme park April 22.
The organization, now calling itself WDWcelebrations.com after its new Web site, was started in part by 17-year-old Dr. Phillips high school student Adam Roth, along with several veteran Disney World observers, including Tom Corless and John Corigliano. The group first formed last year as "Celebration 25," an ad-hoc organization that arranged a fans' celebration for Epcot's silver anniversary. In addition to the Animal Kingdom 10th anniversary, which the group is calling "A Wild Decade," a second event is being planned for September, and that one will become an annual gathering, said Roth, the group's spokesman.
He said Disney is planning an Animal Kingdom park rededication for the morning of April 22, which is also Earth Day. WDWcelebration activities will coordinate with that.
"We are seeking full approval of everything we do from the Walt Disney Co., much like we did with Celebration 25," Roth said.
Imagine that! I did not know that group had anything to do with the Epcot festivities. Let's see if they can get more for DAK's anniversary. _________________ *~deb~*
