The Walt Disney World Moms Panel is now known as the Disney Parks Moms Panel. Along with the change in title, Disney also announced the 19 newest members including two new Team Sports Moms who have joined the roster to assist guests with youth sports-related travel to the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex.
The Disney Parks Moms Panel is an online forum that serves as a resource for planning Disney vacations. Whether guests are looking to visit the fields of the ESPN Wide World of Sports Complex, find the best character dining experience for their family, jog around Disney theme parks with runDisney or discover the cultures of the world with Adventures by Disney, there is a panelist who can share authentic opinions and tips on almost anything and everything Disney Parks. Spanish-speaking visitors can also read and submit questions to a group of dedicated multilingual panelists.
“Since launching in 2008, the Disney Parks Moms Panel has answered countless questions from travelers considering a Disney Parks vacation,” said Meg Crofton, president of Walt Disney Parks and Resorts Operations, U.S. and France. “Known for their sound and practical advice, the panelists continue to be a great resource, helping even more guests make unforgettable Disney memories.”
