Child Life Council Twentieth Annual Conference On Professional ...

SOCIAL EVENT
Downtown Disney is an exciting area with over 70 unique shops, restaurants and entertainment experiences. Here
are three possible ways to explore it on Saturday night, June 8. The round-trip bus fare included in the cost is
significantly cheaper than shuttle or cab service. Downtown Disney is made up of three interconnected areas of
entertainment, shopping, dining and nightlife. Marketplace Village has Disney-themed stores and restaurants.
Pleasure Island, which requires an admission pass, has nightclubs with various themes. The West Side has additional
shopping, dining, movies and nightlife. Note that a maximum of 75 can eat with our group at the House of Blues;
first come, first served. Buses will be available to board for return to the hotel beginning at 9:00 pm, with the last
bus departing at 1:00 am. You must pre-register for the social events. To get a vegetarian entrée with Event 1 or 3, be
sure to specify that preference on the registration form.
Event 1: House of Blues Dinner and Downtown Disney
Dine with other conference-goers at the House of Blues in Downtown Disney’s West End. Dinner in the Lightning
Room will include a house salad, BBQ ribs and chicken platter with mashed potatoes and vegetables, and key lime
pie with raspberry sauce for dessert. (Vegetarian lasagna is available as an alternative entrée if you specify that
preference on the registration form.) After dinner, enjoy Downtown Disney on your own. Buses leave the Rosen
Centre Hotel promptly at 6:30 pm. Cost: $47 (includes dinner, with tip, and transportation).
Event 2: Pleasure Island and Downtown Disney
Enjoy the nightlife of Pleasure Island, where an outdoor street party rages nightly. Your pass will admit you to eight
clubs offering a wide range of music and entertainment: ‘70s disco, rock ‘n’ roll, jazz, country, improv comedy, etc.
(You must be at least 18 and carry a photo ID; two clubs require minimum age 21.) Celebrate New Year’s Eve with
fireworks and confetti at midnight. You can also shop until 11:00 pm in Downtown Disney. Buses leave the Rosen
Centre Hotel at 8:00 pm. Cost: $26 (includes Pleasure Island admission pass and transportation).
Event 3: House of Blues Dinner, Pleasure Island and Downtown Disney
Combine Events 1 and 2. Take the 6:30 pm bus from the hotel to eat dinner at the House of Blues, shop
in Downtown Disney, and enjoy the nightlife of Pleasure Island. Cost: $63 (includes dinner, with tip,
Pleasure Island admission pass, and transportation).
