Originally Posted By retlawfan There are currently NO names being added to the "waiting list", and there is NO check sent in to get on the list.

The "usual" rate of people dropping out of the club has slowed to a trickle, if anything. Grab yourself a churro, and find somewhere cozy to wait...

Originally Posted By Superjosiah Can someone clear up a little confusion for me...

Am I missing something? Is there more to the membership than nostalgia and reservations? If not, I will save my $$$ and buy a second home in Orlando so I can go to some really nice restaurants and enjoy more parks!
