Greg Hale, former Vice President of Design and Engineering at Walt Disney World, was recently promoted to a new position as Chief Safety Officer of the Walt Disney Company. This new position may see him working in California, and may even explain why things in Florida went downhill. That's just conjecture, though.

Disney's California Adventure has been performing far, far below expectations since it opened in February of 2001. Should Disney want to remain involved with FIRST, moving Nationals to the west coast and spotlighting this failing park seems like a no-brainer. It'll draw attention to the Disneyland Resort, but California Adventure in particular. It'll pad DCA's numbers, as well.

My husband/mentor agrees with you now that I've asked him - Anaheim Convention Center.

My best friend's stepdad used to be in charge of Disney security - he retired some years ago. My twin and her husband used to work Disney security.

Interesting about the payoff for Disneyland!

*doing the happy dance* cuz we've been sweating funding for even our first regional, things have recently looked up about funds for our 2nd regional, and now we really could do championships if we qualify at a regional. YIPEE!!
