You have Screamin' closing down in September for 3 months to repaint the entire track, and other refurb work, and who knows what parade, if any will be offered in the fall. Maybe the Aladdin rumor is the best bet for something new in 2007. The rumor is that Aladdin closes at the end of the year, then they could re-do the stage and hold rehersals in early 2007 and have a May, 2007 opening. But it looks like more "Pay for Disneyland, get DCA for FREE!" promos in the fall and spring (FYI, that is just a guess). Also, DCA will participate in the Million Dreams giveaway starting in October, but not sure there is any real unique thing they could give a family related to its attractions.

Matt made it known that if they took BPB or copied it overthere that DCA needed to get a new parade. Last word was that BPB was staying and the money will be put for better use. There are several tings in the planning stages for DCA and as soon as they are closer to being greenlit they will be announced. Screamin will close for reburb in the fall and they will use that oppurtunity to start construction for Midway Madness. Other possibilities are being looked at for Screamin and the pier area including the lagoon.

When they have to hold up cardboard signs to tell me to "SCREAM" - you know it's bad. EUREKA, Mickey's Jammin Jungle Parade, Tapestry of Nations, and the Paris Imaginations are good models to go by. PLEASE don't give us some bad cheerleading insult. A great parade will get me involved on my own instead of "now YOU scream on THIS SIDE" *urgh* enough...
