    Walt Disney World Fans to Gather in Camp Hill, PA,
    July 14, 2007

    Sayreville, NJ, December 5th, 2006 -- MagicMeets.com, organizer of the largest annual get-together of Walt Disney World fans in the United States' Northeast and Mid-Atlantic regions, has announced that its fourth annual Northeast Disney Fans Gathering will be held Saturday, July 14, 2007, in a new location -- the recently renovated Radisson Penn Harris Hotel and Convention Center in Camp Hill, PA, just across the river from the state capital, Harrisburg.

    "Attendance at this event has grown rapidly in just three years," notes Fred Block, organizer of the meet under the
    auspices of MagicMeets.com (formerly DisMeets.com). "In 2004, the first get-together, held in Edison, NJ, was
    attended by just 44 people. By last summer, we had a capacity crowd of 350 at our Allentown, PA, location. We
    actually had to turn away more than 100 people due to space limitations. We don't want that to happen again."

    This year's new location in Camp Hill offers more than twice the convention space of last year's facility (over 30,000 total square feet), so that even more Disney enthusiasts will be able to comfortably enjoy a full day of activities. The agenda includes: special guest speakers, contests, breakout session seminars, a children’s play area, door prizes, pin trading, and much more. In addition, the new location is conveniently situated just five minutes from downtown Harrisburg and 15 minutes from the Harrisburg Airport. It is close to shopping, golf courses, and a number of Harrisburg-area attractions, such as Hershey Park (celebrating 100 years in 2007), Gettysburg Battlefields, Dutch Wonderland, and Indian Echo Caverns. The Radisson Penn Harris Hotel also offers an on-site full service restaurant (Bridges Café) and lounge (Bridges Lounge), as well as room service, an outdoor swimming pool, and a fitness center.

    "The main goal of this gathering is to allow Disney enthusiasts who may only know each other from email or the
    Internet put faces to names," says Block, an avid Disney fan who visits Walt Disney World several times a year with his wife and two daughters. "This new location will provide an even greater number of event attendees that opportunity, as well as the chance to explore an interesting area with a number of close-by attractions."
