August Wondermaker Recap:

August was an INSANE month for announcements! If you somehow missed all of the news, scroll through my page to get up-to-date on my personal favorites! I must mention this again... A MONSTERS INC LAND IS IN THE WORKS!!! When I say I cried at that announcement, I am not kidding.

Here is what August looked like for me as a Wondermaker:

- Had a client book a Disneyland trip at the end of July, so I spent the first part of August making sure they had all the info they need! Their trip began on Thursday, so I took some time to check in with them and they are having a magical time! 🥳

- Booked an April 2025 trip for my first repeat client! She will be participating in the runDisney 10k during her trip, and will be training for that over the next few months! SO excited for her to accomplish this goal she put in front of her! 🏃‍♀️

- Booked my own flights for later this year, where I will be visiting Maine and Canada for the first time!! Not EPCOT Canada, the REAL Canada! 🇨🇦

- Stayed up way past my bedtime during all of the D23 park announcements. There are some amazing things coming up!! RIP Dinoland 😭 (it will eventually be turned into Pueblo Esperanza) 📝

- The leaders of the Wondermakers had a yard sale, and living not too far away, you know I had to go! I was able to get a few Disney-themed items, like Dino stuffed animals you can only get at the games in Dinoland! Had to have something to remember Dinoland by! 🎉

- Was blown AWAY by the new Universal Orlando Resort Promotion, where guests can get a FREE dining card with select stays! 🍩

- Completed travel agent trainings on the newest EPIC Universe announcements to make sure I am up-to-date! How about the Wizarding World of Harry Potter - Ministry of Magic announcement?! 🔥

- Started working on my first monthly newsletter, that is scheduled to go out this Friday!! I am SUPER excited about this project. Subscribe here: https://the-wonder-scroll.beehiiv.com/subscribe 📜

- Tuned in on the Wondermakers Sandals and Beaches Webinar. These are beautiful all-inclusive resorts. It made me want to go back SO bad! 🏖

August was a great month!
