It's time to get started on the planning of the ICOT 15 - or - INTERCOT 15th Aniversary Celebration.

This gathering of ICOT fans will take place October 26-28, 2012 at the Walt Disney World Resort.

If past celebrations are any indication, we'll be looking forward to meeting many of your fellow members over the course of three days worth of events, meets, and parties.

More details are forthcoming soon including a tentative schedule of events - but for now - let's get the ball rolling on this party and say - we hope to see you there! :party:

So excited, but confused??? Are the dates the 24th-26th or the 26th-28th? Your sig says 26-28, but you post is the 24th-26th. Just trying to set up my ADR plans:mickey:

I want to be there! I'll be following the thread to see what exciting plans we have in store. And fingers crossed, I will make it. But I've just been invited to join friends in London in September and that might max out my travel plans for the year. We'll see.

I'm only going if you can promise me there won't be any Philly's or Eagle's fans there. :thedolls:

Heh. No such luck. ;)

So looking forward to this. I missed the 10th celebration, and wouldn't miss this one for the world, no matter where we will be living. :mickey3:

This October is the 15th anniversary of the founding of INTERCOT. We're celebrating with a weekend long party at WDW. :party2:

we are weighing our choices between staying offsite on international drive (for free) versus getting lucky and transfering points through RCI for a stay on property (for $284).... we shall see as it gets closer to October.

Since I am now a passholder I will plan on joining the fun! I don't post as much as I used to but I will try and correct that between now and October :mickey:

I am looking forward to attending also. My husband and I will be trying to combine this as an INTERCOT anniversary and our 20th anniversary (a year and 1 month late) trip. No kids with us on this one!

Here's hoping your response was also tounge in cheek. :beer: :thumbsup:

Guess I'm a bit sensitive....Philly fans get such a bad rap because of the ones that act like idiots. I must admit I am pretty passionate about my teams. Glad it wasn't meant to offend. Now....off to find tickets to see the Phillies down in DC :bball: ;)

Intercot Rocks!

I will be retireing on Oct. 26th and my dream for a decade was to walk out of work and into a limo ride to the airport and on to Disney which would put us right in the middle of the celebration! I already have a spread sheet set up for the week and a count down going.

However...

The Mrs. isn't quite so interested. She doesn't want to go unless we can take the kids and grandkids and my daughter recently discovered she will be delivering our next grand child in late September. Soooo I guess we'll have to postpone our family retirement party for a while and will miss the fun this year. But I'll be thinking of you all. And one of the first gifts to my new grandson/daughter will definately be Mickey/Minnie related. Have fun. :party:

I need a good excuse to give my husband as to why I have to be there. We are currently booked to go the end of Nov. this year with my dance studio and I'm pretty sure he isn't going to go for me going in Oct. also. He is really easy going, but this may be a bit of a stretch. Any ideas?

The above says it all. I was hoping to make it to the meet. Unfortunately, finances just will not allow that far of a trip. I was really looking forward to it so much.

On a happy note, I just booked Jessica and I at the Villas at Grand Californian. We will be there for 4 nights and going to trick or treat at Disneyland. Gotta love the DVC resort in my own back yard. I am then planning a May 2013 trip to Aulani. I am really excited about the change of plans.

We spent 3 magical vacations in 12/10...4/11..and 8/11. That really wiped me out. Now to save the air to HNL and I will get to go back home:cloud9: where I spent many years. Should be done paying for Jessica's braces by then as well.Looks like a 2014 trip to WDW for us.

I hope to be at the next meet.... have fun everyone.:mickey:

I realize you don't have the events planned yet but I'm unsure if I can attend for the full 3 days. I might not be able to get to the meet till Saturday the 27th. I"de really like to attend the Illuminations event. Do you have any idea what night this might be scheduled for? Thanks

I cant believe this. Im one of the people who only have the chance, and money, to go to WDW every 3-5 years. This year however we are going twice and neither time is durring the Intercot meet. Once next month in April for our 5th Aniversary and then durring Cristmas for my fathers 80th Birthday. I would love to meet other members of my intercot family. Grumble grumble grumble. :(

My mayorship!
*Shakes fist*
If only I lived in the Orlando Area!

If only I had room to put that in my signature - "Current Mayor of Gary's Column" - but that would spark competition, and it would never be mine again.

What a dilemma. :pout:

It's official! I'm going!

I was at the 10th and had a blast meeting everyone. Can't wait to see what great times are in store for the 15th.

Oh, I'm from north central Connecticut! Go Huskies (and Red Sox)!

And because it's official that TikiGoddess is going, it's also official that Mousefever will be there as well! I was at the 10th Anniversary too, with my son. He will not be there this time, because he doesn't want to miss any school! Some people may remember him as Goofy from the MNSSHP event. I'll at least do some Goofy pin trading for him!

Yay, I am looking forward to seeing you and Kathy again, Amy! It would be nice to see Goofy again too, but I think he'd make me feel so old because I am sure he's a young man now and not the little goofball I met last time!

It will be fun to see you again, Nikki! Yes, Jacob is almost 14 and taller than me, but maybe not taller than Kathy. He remembers well how kind everyone was to him.

Where are you staying?

Oh I totally want to come. I really hope I can! Fingers crossed. I missed the 10th but was at the Happiest Gathering (was that the 5th?) and still tell everyone how I laughed so much and had so much fun my sides hurt for a whole week after the meet.

I think Pop but if the Little Mermaid rooms at Art of Animation are open early like they are supposed to be, maybe there!

I just checked and Art of Animation Standard rooms (Little Mermaid section) are available For Oct now. Maybe I'll stay there, just to check it out.. I'm still undecided.

It just so happens I will be there Oct 25-29! My 40th birthday is the 28th. I am going with a couple girlfriends. I am not a board "regular" but I always enjoy visiting Intercot when I am planning a trip or just when I have the "Disney Bug". :)
