Prototype 'Stitch' Pin Artwork

We were recently e-mailed a beautiful set of jpeg photos, containing prototype 'Stitch' pin variations. The artist/sendor did not mention his name or position within Disney and apparently the pin was never produced. I would certainly love to know more about the artwork, it's simply wonderful!

Movement on the list!

Well, things are looking up for those of us who have been patiently waiting these many years. We've received a few e-mails from new members who have stated they applied in 2000 and 2001. Not bad!! So, for those who applied around those dates, who knows, perhaps there are going to be openings. We'll keep our fingers crossed and please let us know if you hear anything.
Good luck to all!

Favorite Soup!

We've received a few e-mails regarding the club's variety of soup.
Seems as though the butternut squash bisque is one of the most popular and honestly, I must agree!! Extremely rich, very aromatic, smooth creamy texture, definitely a signature Fall and Winter dish.
What's your favorite soup? Join our forum and let us know!

The History of the '33' Revealed!

For years all of us have wondered exactly how Club 33 was named. So many rumors and myths, all of them making perfectly good sense but few knew the true answer.
Thanks to the former manager Mr. Roger Craig, we now have the answer!
We have updated our web site page, please have a look.

For those short on time, we've posted the list in our blog!
Walt wanted a place to entertain VIP's and dignitaries, a place to negotiate contracts, bring family and friends, a quiet more formal venue away from the crowds. He wanted it next to his small apartment, so the current location in New Orleans Square was perfect. The park featured 33 original lessees who helped finance the park and were allowed to sponsor attractions, food services, and so on. If you review the list, you'll instantly recognize many of the names.
Since these sponsors were going to be the initial members of the club and allowed access, the name was chosen based upon their exact number, 33.
