Big Announcement Thursday at 12:45pm ET


I'm constantly scanning the internet to see what nuggets of information about Pleasure Island can be gleaned. One of the more recent gems I came across was from someone supposedly in the know claiming that "a whole new concept is on the table" for Pleasure Island. Yes, I posted that here on the Blog previously. Plan A is out and a more adult-oriented Plan B is in the works. That's why I encouraged everyone to write to Tom Staggs and try to influence what Plan B would ultimately become. But this person then went on to say that plans for PI would be more family-oriented and consist of more entertainment, shopping and dining options. Wait...that's what Plan A was. And an entirely different name for the Island. Ah...that was Plan A too. Not saying this person is wrong, but are we back to the original ideas?

Anyway, Disney is making a BIG announcement tomorrow (Thursday) at 12:45pm ET. You can watch it live via internet streaming at: http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2010/09/live-coverage-of-disney-parks-special-announcement/?CMP=SOC-DPFY10Q3Twitter9.22.1022-09-10%400006
Lots of guesses about what they might announce. We can hope there might be something in there about Pleasure Island! Tune in.

I definitely hope this is a sign of something good to come.
Hopefully Mr.Staggs will tell us some insight on what this plan B is.
Hopefully It'll be about reopening the clubs, and lighting up PI.
So the adults can party.

...next big campaign replacing "Celebrate Today!"

Yes, I suspect it will center around the replacement for "Celebrate Today", which is ending its second year. Supposedly "Memories" has something to do with the new slogan and next year is the 40th Anniversary so it may have to do with that. Speculation is that it could also have to do with changes to the Fantasyland expansion project. And if we're lucky, about some of the things coming to PI!
