Hey everyone!
I'll be back with more previews later tonight, but be sure to check this out: WDW Today Supports Dream Team Project

It's a great way for those of you who can't be there to bid on items to still help out and make this year's event a huge success!

Great News for all those unable to get to MagicMeets. A big THANK YOU to Mike Newell for this great idea!

I would like to see 40 people donate $40 in honor of Lou's 40th birthday.

What a great present that would be!

Okay, got up through #70 posted. Next round tomorrow. Did want to share one photo of how lot #62 ended up looking when wrapped - I am particularly pleased with how it came out, and I know Virginia's been curious to see!

The country bears are so cute in that chair!

**disneydame2004** · 07-03-2008, 09:32 AM

15 more up this morning....

lorilovestigger · 07-03-2008, 09:38 AM

You all should be happy I didn't steal Christmas Tigger!!

Cinderella2 · 07-03-2008, 12:16 PM

Pat!!!! That Ratatouille lot is the coolest thing! I wouldn't want to unwrap it, it is too cute!

Cinderella2 · 07-03-2008, 12:28 PM

I just don't get how you Dream Teamers do it.
The hours just spent coming up with items and then how to present it.
So creative-

And a day with Hidden Mickey Man? Seriously? That is pretty darn cool.
I do have to admit I love me some Stacey as well. You know you're in Disney when you turn on the TV and hear her voice.

They just keep getting better and better.

The $40 for a 40th birthday idea...hmmm...do you want that to happen on auction day, or can I make the pledge to you now to get the ball rolling. I'll pledge $40 today, and bring you the money to magic meets (in addition to any auctions I might win!).

I have set aside money specifically for the auction/charity, so I'm happy
to do this. I opted OUT of the special events offered at Magic Meets on the premise that it is extra money I can give to the charity - so I HOPE to be very generous (sometimes my Scrooge McDuck shows up, and I have a hard time bidding too high on stuff - but I hope to leave him at home this year).

So, if I can start the $40 for 40, please start that list. If you don't want to do it like this - I'll track you down at Magic Meets and do it there.

Happy Independence Day my friends. God Bless the US.

**disneydame2004** · 07-04-2008, 12:27 AM

Okay, through 110 are up!!
There are a few last minute additions that I'll post tomorrow (I guess that's actually later today, since it's post pumpkin hour), and a few details to fill in.

Tammi, thanks for the enthusiasm! There will be computers available at MagicMeet to process your donation there - doing it there will count it towards the money raised that day.

For those who won't be there in person, be sure to listen to the WDW Today live podcast (Give us 5 minutes and we will give you the world - WDW Today), and make a donation at Firstgiving - DisneyWorldTrivia.com Dream Team Project ON JULY 19 between 9 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. to make your donation count towards the total raised that day.

Last year we raised $9000 in a few hours. Let's see if we can do even more than that this year!

disneydreamer98 · 07-04-2008, 07:30 AM

OMG!!!!! I NEED that Jim Shore autographed ornament for my Jim Shore collection! LOVE IT!

lorilovestigger · 07-04-2008, 10:14 AM

I'm going to win the Co-Host for a day and no one is going to stop me!!! Bwahahahhaha!

Unless of course they have more money than me.

Probably not a good sign if Lou starts bidding against you Lori!!
