Originally Posted By tcsnwhite The original intro from day 1 was Julie talling, then going to the children's chorus singing the Share a Dream theme song, then a young boy proclaiming the start of the parade, and then the big orchestral intro with peter pan talking to tinkerbell, and then the parade music loop starts. Lots of intros for this parade when it started.

It's really a sad statement on WDW entertainment that this relic, that wasn't good to begin with, rolls on and that Cindy's Surprise Celebration, which was supposed to be a presentation for 100 Years of Magic, will actually be back after the costlier Cinderellabration ends its run this year.
