Disneyland Day Details and Updates

Hey all, we are less than 10 days away!! Woot woot.

Breakfast will be at 8am Saturday March 7th. This year it'll be just outside of the park gates. We are very excited about this because it means we will be able to all walk into the park right after we finish(probably 9am-ish). This should eliminate travel time for the day and give us more time in the park. Here is the picnic area

In the morning the area is completely empty! It's located to the left of the Dinseyland entry gates. Over past the lockers (which you can use to store the trophy, prizes or shirts if you need to).

The breakfast is going to be just bagels and drinks. We want to make things as easy, cheap and fast as possible for everyone. Shirts and breakfast come to $12 per person.

Mousehunt. We will hold the final competition to crown this years champ in the picnic area. As of now, Tessa, Brit and Marianne are the top 3 but that can easily change. (for full standings see the chart on the right) With only 10 days left expect a lot of pop-quiz questions to mix up the standings.

As for the shirt, it was close but you guys picked shirt design #1 for the back

This years shirts!!

To celebrate the 60th anniversary of Disneyland this year's DLand Day theme is Classic Disney. These year I asked the super talented Savanna to design the front of our t-shirt, check out her awesome design!

This year we'd like your input again. Let us know which of these 3 fonts you'd prefer for the back of the shirt...

 OPTION #1

  OPTION #2

 

  OPTION #3

We aren't locked yet on final colors, but this is what I think the final shirts will look like-ish

Can't wait to take our big group pic!! Make sure you get your shirt sizes to me asap!!

Mousehunt Rules

We are about to have our 6th year of Disneyland Day and our 5th ever Mousehunt Challenge! We've had a ton of fun so far! Here is a breakdown of the competition...

First there is the Digital Competition (for everyone whether you make it to DLand or not)

• Every day at the exact same time every week for the month(ish) before Disneyland Day we will send an email with a question. 
• A correct answer to that question will get you 7 points. A wrong answer gets you 5 points. 
• Being the first to answer correctly to the weekly question get's you 3 extra points (2nd gets 2 and 3rd gets 1). There will also be a bonus question sent in the same email worth 3 additional points.
• In the past years the first 3 answers usually are given within 2-3 minutes of sending the email. So you'll likely only get those extra points if you are hitting refresh at the designated time like a mad man
• Randomly at any time we will send out an email with a Pop Quiz. This can be anything at all. Past examples where write a limmerick, take a Star Wars themed selfie, find a hidden mickey, etc... The points for this vary
• We will update the blog weekly with current standings of all contestants
• The top scorer who does not make it to Disneyland Day is the Digital Mouseketeer Winner!

Next is the Mouehunt Championship

• To compete you mus i)be in the top 3 from the digital competion and ii)must attend the DLand Day breakfast
• Contestants will play a combo of cherades, humdingers, pictionary and trivia to move along the board. First one to the finish is the Champ
• All three get certificates and prizes but first place gets the coveted Mousehunt Trophy!

It's really a blast and we can't wait to see who the next winner will be! May the best Mouseketeer win!

Block Party!

For anyone that has attended Disneyland Day you know that one of the perks is you get a nice personalized wooden block as a mini memorial of of party. 2014 marked our fifth year of Disneyland Day! We give the blocks the following year so here is a sneak peak of what it'll look like.

We're excited to have 5 of these on our shelf soon! Here are our ones from the previous 4 years.

Each year is themed. This coming year will be classic Mickey in honor of Disneyland's 60th Anniversary
