I loved listening to Lou's interview of 7 members of the Mom's Panel this week! Last year I learned about the contest to be a member a day too late and was so disappointed.
I'm wondering, does anyone know if the plan is to expand the Mom's Panel each year or rotate it out by way of another contest? I'd love to submit an entry for it!
and I'm also ready to be a Disney Dad panel guy. I submitted last year also and will try again this time around should they open it back up
I just got an email from the Mom's panel asking me to enter again this year for the 2009 panel. Apparently the contest opens up again in September.
Very kewl...wife and I are both ready to roll when it opens back up
Do you know, is it a "replacement" of the current members or just adding on to them?Quote:

They mentioned on the show that their year would be over after a year and that they would be replaced.
Your question is a timely one, because Disney just released a few details about applying for the 2009 Moms Panel in its latest edition of the Mickey Moms Club newsletter:Quote:

Incidentally, to my knowledge, the only recipients of the Mickey Moms Club newsletter are the 10,000 people who managed to apply for the 2008 Panel last Fall. It's clear, though, that this year's contest is open to all "Moms" (or, to the first 20,000 who apply, at least :wink:), and all applicants will be invited to join the Mickey Moms Club.
Best wishes! :wizard:
**Since I'm a "newbie" on this board, I'm not permitted to post links. When Sept. 8 arrives, just add a triple "w" and a dot to the disneyworldmoms.com/2009 web address, and you should be golden! :yes:
Whoops! 'Looks like PlutoGirl already posted the relevant details from the newsletter! :blush:
Anyway, good luck to all who apply! :D
Thanks so much! I did re-listen to Lou's podcast and heard the fact that the current moms are being replaced. I'm actually kind of sad about that. I was hoping they'd just add to the panel. Still, I'm looking forward to applying this year.
After hearing this week's show I want to enter too! What exactly did you have to do to enter the contest last year? How many words etc? I need to put my thinking mouse ears on......Actually I am going to go and listen to the show again, and check out the mom's website!:mousetune
does anyone know if its only open to Moms in the USA? I've looked through the information, but am i missing an obvious exclusion for non - USA residents?
I didn't see anything either about US resident. Go for it, Fiona. All you've got to lose is the price of a stamp.Quote:

One of the Moms on this year's panel (Brigitta Noer) hails from Canada. She's from Nanoose Bay British Columbia.Quote:
