Disney’s Year of a Million Dreams Grand Marshal Kicks Off Magic Kingdom Parade
Last year, Joshua Peterson of Eustis, Florida was exiting Mission: Space in Walt Disney World’s Epcot park when Disney Cast Members told him he won the Grand Marshal World Tour prize as part of Disney’s Year of a Million Dreams. Joshua will kick off his role as Grand Marshal by appearing in the parade at Walt Disney World’s Magic Kingdom on Wednesday. After that, he’ll fly with three other family members to each Disney theme park around the world. The prize package is valued at over $45,000. What a cool prize!
The Orlando Sentinel reported yesterday that Disney has given out 1.25 million prizes since the Year of a Million Dreams campaign launched last year. Prizes have ranged from not-available-in-stores mouse ears to Disney Vacation Club memberships.
If you haven’t won yet, don’t give up. Disney told the Orlando Sentinel that there is another prize available like the one Joshua Peterson won that has not been awarded yet. Another prize that will award a lucky winner with exclusive time on Disney’s private island in the Bahamas, Castaway Cay, is also yet ot be given out.
A computer program randomly selects the time and place many of these prizes are distributed. That’s how Joshua Peterson won. That means, as long as you visit a Disney theme park, you have a chance to win. I keep wondering with the amount of time I spend in the parks of Walt Disney World, when am I going to win something? There is always hope!
