Our Very Special "Be Our Guest Speaker" will be....
Charlie Ridgway
Writer, reporter, editor, photographer and nationally known press agent recognized by the Walt Disney Co. as a true Disney Legend, made his first visit to Disneyland three months before its opening in 1955 when a six-year-old neighbor boy snuck under the construction fence for a feature story in a major Los Angeles newspaper recounting a sneak-peak into what was then known as Walt's Folly. Eight years later he signed on as a Disney publicist and spent the next 40 years cooking up ways to get free publicity for the Mouse House. For Donald Duck 50^th birthday he trained 50 Peking ducks to follow the irascible cartoon star in a daily parade through he Magic Kingdom. He helped open seven Disney parks in Orlando, Anaheim, Paris and Hong Kong, rubbed shoulders with presidents, princes and show-business stars and helped usher in a new era of live electronic coverage of huge press gatherings for the grand openings of parks, attractions, hotels and recreation venues. He was on a first-name basis with famous editors and journalists from around the world. In his engaging and light-hearted memoir, Charlie shares the special magic that makes Disney World universally beloved.

BONUS: As an added Bonus, Charley's publisher has promised that we will have advanced copies of his new book for sale and will of course be happy to sign them. The book is not due out in the book stores till April!
