I have no idea. I remember reading about the warehouse in a Disneyland Line (The CM newsletter) article.Yfoog wrote:There is? Cool. I live in Ontario.....where's this place at?

My mousepad has the famous 1955 (or so) map of Disneyland (pre-Matterhorn). The banner in the bottom corner says "Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom, Disneyland U.S.A., Anaheim, California".
The "Magic Kingdom" and "Anaheim, California" are in very small type, Walt Disney in a medium size version of his signature, with "Disneyland, U.S.A." the largest.
My interpretation is that in the context of Disneyland, "Magic Kingdom" is used as a descriptive phrase ("a kingdom that is magical"), as opposed to an actual name (WDW's park is the "Magic Kingdom", and no other name).

My Dad had one of those cards when we lived in Brandon, FL in 1973. We only lived there a year and we had to take all his customers so we got to go to WDW 6 times that one year. It was great. Only problem is that I didn't get to go back for 10 years after that. Good times....Ms. Matterhorn wrote:Who remembers the old "Magic Kingdom" cards that would get you a book of all E (Magic Key) tickets?

Ontario warehouse is just a huge non descript building which can only be entered by CM security IDs. I never knew abt it until I was in PT @ D L with a CM who had broken her shoulder & was recovering from surgery. All PT & OT therapy staff @ D L are from St. Joseph's Hosp, Orange. We are told if a guest finds a WDW anything in stores the item can't be sold & all are pulled @ once. They are pulled but go to Co.

(Even though there is a DLR warehouse in Ontario,CA) A lot of the things I have bought at DLR says it is distributed by Walt Disney Theme Parks and Resorts,Lake Buena Vista ,FL. Sometimes they ship the WDW branded items to DL by mistake.

Re: Er....do you know what state you're in, Mr. Marketing CM?
Again, yet another example of some CMs not knowing what resort they work at...
We have posters up in my area advertising the new Celebration Buttons for the "What Will You Celebrate?" promotion. Wonderful poster, with just a ever so slight yet wildly evident problem....they used the flyer designed for the Walt Disney World Cast .
Never mind the fact that it has a button on it that we're not introducing at the DLR (we're getting a "Just Graduated" button, WDW's getting a "My Magical Triumph" button) nor the fact that it had a giant logo on the bottom saying, "What Will You Celebrate? Walt Disney World, Where Dreams Come True". They were convinced that it was the right poster to put up.
But what got at me even more was one of the suggested things to say to guests that was listed on the thing. Taking into mind that this is a WDW poster, one of the suggested things to say to a WDW guest wearing a "First Visit" button:
"Welcome to The Happiest Place on Earth!"
:mad:
(Relative minor things? Yes, of course. But they sure as heck do add up .)

It's not that they don't care, they just don't have enough functioning neurons to do so and stand upright at the same time.

glendalais wrote:One of Disneyland Park's nicknames is "The Magic Kingdom", which has always been used as sort of a secondary one to "The Happiest Place on Earth" (which itself has seemed to fallen by the wayside in recent years, in favour of "The Place Where Dreams Come True").
However, it has never been an official name of the park. Officially, we've always been "Disneyland" (pre-DLR) or "Disneyland Park" (post-DLR).
I'm surprised to be the first to quote the Disneyland Railroad:
"Your attention please. The Disneyland Limited, now leaving for a Grand Circle Tour of Walt Disney's Magic Kingdom."
