Lug Does Love, Disney-Style

They’re going to the chapel, and they’re gonna get ma-a-a-rried! Correction: They’re going to Walt Disney World, a.k.a. the happiest place on earth, and they’re gonna get married! That’s right. After a year and a half engagement, Ami and Jason are finally tying the knot on May 25, and they’ve got a wonderful wedding lineup planned for friends and family from Dallas to Toronto, and New York to San Fran. (plus some Wisconsin Cheeseheads for good measure).

It wouldn’t be a Lug wedding without a nod to the couple’s love of travel. Thus, the rehearsal dinner is in Germany at the Biergarten, and the post-wedding cocktail hour is in France. (Don’t you just love Epcot?) To end the evening with a bang, the newest man and wife and their guests will take in what has to be one of the most spectacular fireworks displays around—IllumiNations. Now that’s one wedding I’d like to crash.

Best wishes and nuptial bliss to the happy couple!

Lug Gives Back to the Community

On Tuesday April 13, 2010, the Lug team headed out to Humanity First to help with the food drive as part of the Give a Day, Get a Disney Day. To encourage people to get out and make a difference, Disney announced a campaign in hopes of getting one million people to give their time and hard work and they have already reached this target….yay!

We arrived at Humanity First Food Bank and learned about their Feed a Family initiative. They deliver food to the doorsteps of the needy and disabled. The recipients are people who are facing challenges and cannot reach the Food Bank due to physical disability or lack of available transportation. Most of these people are without stable shelter, battling abuse, single parents, students under debt, and bed ridden patients. Check outwww.humanityfirst.org for more information.

The Lug crew helped with sorting food and putting bags of rice, flour and sugar together. We are only a small group, but every little bit helps to make a difference.

It was an awesome experience and felt good to give back to our community. So if you have some spare time, think about volunteering. There are always organizations out there that need your help. Go Lug Go!

Paralympic Experience - Day 2

Day 2 got off to a great start - we boarded the bus decked out in our gifted swag (it was like Christmas opening our gifts!!) and went to explore the Whistler Athletes Village! The tour inside was awesome and so inspiring!
We were lucky enough to see Colette Bourgonje in Team Canada's house and she shared 2 of her medals with us - check out Marko sporting her silver medal! Nice!!
We also got to see Para-Alpine Skiing + medal ceremony at Whistler Creekside - again very cool experience.
Here is our Paralympic Hospitality Family from Wave 2! New friends and partners for the future!

It was a great day. Go Canada!
