I will be printing nametags in the next day or so, and I will print one for anyone who posted in this thread by that time. If you don't post by then, I will hand-print your name on a nametag when I see you at Disney.

Just a reminder: You can pick up your nametags and schedules at the "This Could Be the Start of Something" Check-In Meet at 3:00-3:30 pm on Saturday, May 2. I'll be at the seating area across from Aloha Isle in Adventureland at the Magic Kingdom.

Important Note; The nametags will have your first name (no last names) and your PassPorter member name (if you have one -- family members traveling with you probably don't have one so that line will be blank). If you do not put a first name of your family members, I will not be able to make them a nametag! And they may want one because they're AWESOME (if I do say so myself). So please, check your posts and edit them if the names aren't listed. And if you prefer to use a nickname for your kids, as some folks do, list that instead ... just make it something unique.

I will begin printing the nametags tomorrow, so you have until midnight tonight to edit or post. Thanks!!
