RADP V Scrapbook Big Meet and Greet
BIG MEET AND GREET
December 9, 2000
RADP V Scrapbook
My
Saturday began with a great breakfast at Spoodles, one of my favorite
places to eat.
There
were numerous special guests at this years Meet and Greet. Pictured
below are well known Disney fans: Rick and Gayle Perlmutter, Dave Marx
and Jennifer Watson, Deb, Rebekah and Doobie Mosley, Rita Aero and Paige
Brown.
Caro
and her friends came all the way from Japan! "I was fearful of meeting
people and knew I was going to have a hard time introducing myself to
others (introducing oneself is not a quality of Japanese) …and greeting
and talking in a non-native language, and interpreting and explaining
what's going on to my two friends, and keeping smiling so my friends don't
feel uncomfortable being interpreted, and… I think you get the idea.
Judimouse came to find me at the Big Meet and introduced me to some of
her friends. That really saved me 'cause I was almost in a panic – Thank
you, judimouse!! Caro
As most
folks were set up for the group photo, I slowly went left to right and
took up close photos. I'm not sure who everyone is in the photos, so please
write me if you can identify folks!
Chris,
Pam and Craig Cohen, Czar Jim, Joe Fedenyszen, Chrisie Dahl and her family,
Denise Tinybeetle, Joe Fedenyszen and his wife, Sorcerer Rob and Keith….
"I
want to say a VERY BIG thank you to EVERYONE I met on Saturday. I was
just about paralized with fear, and completely tongue-tied, but that didn't
stop a lot of you from saying "hi". Please forgive me if I didn't say
much – I was really excited to meet you all, but just completely unable
to speak! Honestly, I didn't expect that many of you to even remember
me. Thank you so much to everyone who said a kind word, especially Ronnie,
Bruce & Laura who were just so nice! Thanks to Paragon, for remembering
a couple of hermits. 🙂 Thanks to all the authors for attending, and
being so accessable, especially Jennifer Watson for making me feel not
so out of place. Most of all, a HUGE THANK YOU to Deb Wills for being
just an amazing person! Thank you again to everyone who attended. And
to everyone who didn't – this is something you should really do someday!
🙂 " Bashful

"Well,
after what we saw this weekend, I want to sincerely thank everyone who
put in an effort to roganize all of the meets, the Big Meet on Saturday,
the pictures, the cruises, the dinners, *everything*." Jimmy McKinley
I'd
like to say thanks to the members of RADP who put together this whole
thing. I'd love to do it again. I'll host a boat again if needed. Look
for me behind the scenes again. Until then…watch for the trip report,
coming to a channel near you soon. Steve (Main Street Magic) Simmons

It was
the best trip ever!!! Thanks to all of you for making Mom feel welcome
she can't stop talking about how nice ever one was. She is very shy and
tends to keep to herself. And thanks for being such great friends I look
forward to seeing you all again soon Tracy

"We
boated out of the Disney-MGM docks and naviagated our way to the World
Showcase entrance of EPCOT. Seems there was this large conglomeration
of really nifty people we were to meet up with and get to know for a couple
of hours. (Yup – the big RADP meet – great fun, too!) " Vully
