In this, the latest “Banzai” episode of our ParkCast, we’re talking about a very unique opportunity we recently had to participate in a charity walk for CHOC (the Children’s Hospital of Orange County) at Disneyland in early October. As members of the Disney community, and as people who truly enjoy giving back to such an amazing community, we jumped at the chance to participate in such an amazing event! So come on by and join us as we recount the wonderful experience we had participating in this annual event (CHOC Walk in the Park 2011), and find out how you can get involved yourselves in the future. Pull up your chair and sit a spell; we’ll be happy you did!
Pull up a chair, sit a spell, and listen along; we’ll be happy you did! You can listen to our ParkCast on the Days in the ParkCast website or in iTunes!

In this episode…
Let’s have a “good cause” episode!
-It’s “CHOC”, not “Chalk”!
-Disneyland’s two charity walks per year: AIDS Walk Orange County & CHOC Walk in the Park
So tell us… what IS the “CHOC Walk in the Park”? How does it work?
-Thanks for the donations
-Just donate and walk
Early morning? Stuck in traffic? Trying to get to a charity walk? Let’s talk suicide!
-“Early to rise, early to arrive!”
-The only complaint of the day: Traffic! Rather, the handling of traffic!
-Who needs a tram when you have feet? It is a charity “walk” after all
-We missed the opening ceremony! Picture Donald Duck throwing a tantrum… now!
-What do you get when you’re too foolish to change the radio while waiting in traffic? Suicide chat!
The “CHOC Walk in the Park” itself
-5K walk, but for the metrically impaired, 3.2 miles!
-Still irked about the traffic apparently, because here we go again!
-It’s crowded… be prepared to throw down sardine-style
-Mark talks the route; dude’s got the memory of a Dumbo
-“Wink Wink, Nudge Nudge…” Monty Python in the ParkCast! Plus, we’re backstage at DCA!
-What’s a charity walk without a little “Journey”?
-Come to the good and charitable side… we have cookies. Bring your own milk!
Need some encouragement? Show us the Character Meets!
-Cowboy-style Goofy, Chip and Dale
-Poor, poor Disney princesses; make this carousel stop!
-”Make it blue!” “Make it green!”; the ‘Sleeping Beauty’ fairies take over Sleeping Beauty Castle
-In a galaxy far, far away you get to meet Stormtroopers, Buzz Lightyear, and Buzz’s astro-babes
-Ferb and the Fireside girls, Flynn and Rapunzel, and Princess Tiana
-Twilight Zone Tower of Terror bellhops both encourage and discourage at the same time; too sweet!
Next year, the Days in the Park team!
