Our party of 4 only has one cast member, and with that, all our hopes for competing together again were gone. Since then, I've had a blast being a volunteer for the event, seeing some of the behind-the-scenes work that goes into putting on an event like this. But there's nothing quite like competing... Fortunately every once in a while, a little Disney Magic can happen. All the way back in August 2017, a friend let me know that there was an auction with various Disney items, benefitting CHOC (Child...
