Theme Park Club?????????
 
I know about the Mickey Fanatics and the Goofy Villagers (we are on the waiting list for both), but does anyone know of a club that visits the other parks that surrounds TV. I'm sure there are Villagers just as interested in going to Sea World, Busch Gardens, Universal and the smaller attractions in the area as there are people wanting to go to Disney, but I can't find anyone mentioning them. If any of you know of such a club, please respond on this post.

Why would you need a club to visit attractions. I personally hate the tribe mentality

Different strokes for different folks. If you enjoy doing things alone, then you don't need a club.

Personally, I enjoy sharing the experience with others. Obviously, there are others in TV that feel the same way, else the Mickey Fanatics, the shooting clubs, the kayaking club, and all of the other clubs would have never been formed.

Enjoying the company of others when doing fun things hardly qualifies for your degrading label.

OP if no one gives you a shout out about the club you are looking for, start one. That’s how goofy villagers and Mickey fanatics started.

We're only at TV 6 or 7 months out of the year and if I started the club, I would feel obligated to be there full time.

If no one knows of an existing club, we'll visit the parks by ourselves and hope to get into the Fanatics or Goofy for our Disney fix.

Thanks for the suggestion.

Then what are you doing in TV ??

We just signed up for Universal Annual Pass this week.

Albeit, I got rid of the Disney Pass after their anti-white screed they put out over the Summer/Fall. Dumped every bit of Disney product/merch in the trash.

I'd only been to Universal once years ago and just to one side. Enjoying it so far til they do something stupid. They also have a new park opening over the next couple of years. Perfect timing IMO.

Careful Dan, they don’t like independent thinkers on this forum.

Have seaworld / bush gardens annual gold pass- wife and son have bronze pass….free parking and discounts on food and merch….break even is 3 visits….we go once a month….holiday shows and fireworks are as good as Disney - the orca show is both amazing and sad however….

I recognized the symbol, my favorite band in my youth. Saw them in NY on Long Island two years ago - great!
