D23 has just added a very special episode of “Armchair Archivist” to its website, and I wanted to share it with you – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8wvR3VcKflM&feature=youtu.be.  I hope you, in turn, can share it with your readers!  It’s a first in-depth glimpse of what’s in store for D23 Members during D23’s three-day Smoke Tree Ranch Roundup event, which takes place Jan. 23 to Jan. 25 in Palm Springs.

The video will give you a great idea of where Walt Disney vacationed and re-charged his creative batteries.  The website also has a story on Disneyland Golden Horseshoe Revue alumnus Dana Daniels, who will present his award-winning comedy and magic act during the Smoke Tree Ranch Roundup, and regale guests with tales of working at the legendary Golden Horseshoe Saloon.  You’ll find that story at http://d23.disney.go.com/news/2011/12/d23-presents-the-smoke-tree-ranch-roundup/.

Both of these links illustrate just some of the fun in store for D23 Members and their guests who experience the first-of-its-kind Smoke Tree Ranch Roundup, created just for D23 Members.

For Disney film fans, it’s also worth noting that FREE tickets will be available on Monday (Dec. 19) for the first “From the Vaults” film series at the Walt Disney Studios – presenting the inimitable “Newsies” on the big screen.  (Tickets are free, but there is a $5 processing fee per ticket.) For those lucky folks who were in Pasadena in August 2009 for the special D23/ArcLight presentation of “Newsies,” you know it was an absolutely electrifying experience. We think it’s going to be an amazing time at the Studios for this presentation, too, especially with the “breaking news” that “Newsies” is coming soon to Broadway!
