Local Ohio family wins night in Cinderella's Castle

angell1975 · 03-22-2007

The Columbus Dispatch had an article in their paper this past weekend about a Central Ohio family that won a night in Cinderella's Castle and I thought I would share it. A guy that brings his grandkids to our Tae Kwon Do classes was telling me about this family and they wasn't even planning on going to WDW, but got picked at Downtown Disney! Anyway, here is the link to the article!

Wow that's pretty cool that they got a free Magic Kingdom trip out of it, when they weren't even planning on going there!

**Dopey** · 03-22-2007

Wow, what a nice story. I wish....I wish....

I could be mistaken, but wasn't the first family, who got WDW all to themselves from Ohio too?

**ddoll** · 03-22-2007

Oh my. that is just the ultimate dream isn't it? How lucky they are!

That is correct. My DS included that info. on his school project about Ohio

I wished it when I was there- nothing happened...

I am wishing it at home, maybe they will come to Georgia to pick us. We would go- if they asked!

I hate them...openly and for all to see

I SO want to stay in there..
