Canoe Race Around the Rivers of America at Disneyland Park.

[ABOSS302]

I still have my trophies and team shirt from 1978 and 79 when we had a WED Big Thunder team.

[uselessprince]

It was pretty fun to participate in this years even though my team didn't qualify!

[skelingtonismine]

DC all the way! so proud of my friends winning 11 years in a row! yeah buddy!

[SoundDawg3]

It is alot of fun. Going on 47 years as an event. Disneyland WDW both have races. a DL team once went over there and beat WDW. Good teams are under 5 minutes. Great teams are under 4 minutes. There is no OT or raises involved. It's for FUN, EXERCISE, COMPETITION, MORAL, and of course PRIDE.

[Boytoy26]

not very deep.. Probably about 8 to 10 feet...

[babeiamahottie]

@Boytoy26

[POWERJFROMLA]

[SuperSora12366]

[FFGirl15]

Wow! I can't wait to do this when I become a cast member!

[TheDisneyFanForever]

That is SO cool! Disney will always have great, fun, new ideas.

[skinflutey]

you should look into there collage internship programs.

[anim8rguy72]

@skinflutey college.... college. :)

[greasydame]

Aw, it's too bad that they didn't tell us some of the team names. I bet they were clever. I wonder if the CMs weren't able to be themselves with a camera running.

[Duncan35]

[N21X]

Congratulations to the winners and to all who competed.

Looks like a lot of fun.

[RinoaHatake]

"What are some of the benefits?"

I think what he meant to ask was...

Do they get over time for this?

Or a raise once they win?

Lol. I love Disney! That was one of my dream jobs growing up! xD

[chucktone11]

[SimbaNalaKiara]

Like they said, early morning. Just about when the sun is starting to come up!

[AustinMinnProduction]

I know. I mean what day. I know I wouldn't get to see it. It would just be cool to know if it was when I was there.

[SimbaNalaKiara]

Well, sorry, I can't help you there. I don't work at Disneyland anymore! :( Maybe someone else will be able to answer the question :)

[narutoitachi152]
