ALL STAR sponsors MagicMeets Disney Fan Gathering

More than 600 faithful Disney fans gathered in Camp Hill, PA on July 16, 2007.  Guests were able to meet their favorite Disney authors and website editors, learn valuable tips from the experts, and enjoy a day of fun with other members of the Disney community.

Each person who attended the event, as a sponsor, participant or speaker could not help but feel the magic of Disney throughout the entire day.  Together, the group raised more than $9,000 for the Make-A-Wish Foundation through a silent auction filled with more than 110 donated items.  Among the many speakers that day was Deb Wills, editor of AllEarsNet.com and co-author of WDW for your Special Needs.  Read Deb’s article about the Magic Meets event at the All Ears website
