More on the "Give a Day, Get a Disney Day" program:
Traveller's Rest Equine Elders Sanctuary has been approved for participation and is actively listing volunteer opportunities with Disney's program designed to encourage people to get involved with community non-profit organizations.
From the Disney site:
We want to inspire one million people to volunteer a day of service to a participating organization in their communities. So we're celebrating these volunteers' good works by giving each of them a 1-day, 1-theme park ticket to the Disneyland® Resort or Walt Disney World® Resort, free. There's no better time to make a dream come true for others and let us make a few come true for you.
You must pre-register and sign up through this site to volunteer and complete your service at an eligible volunteer opportunity in the fifty United States, District of Columbia, Puerto Rico or Canada to receive a ticket after verification of such service. Ticket quantities for this program are limited. You must be at least 18 to sign up. You may only sign up a maximum of 8 members of your household. Children must be at least 6 to participate in the program. One ticket per person, regardless of the number of times you volunteer. Program begins January 1, 2010 and continues until tickets are distributed or until December 15, 2010, whichever occurs first. Your voucher for a free ticket must be redeemed by December 15, 2010, and used on the same day of redemption.

That’s the rod that turns the cogs that rotate the chains that pull the bars that drag the poop to the back of the spreader. This morning, the bracket that supports the rod that turns the cogs that rotate the chains that pull the bars that drag the poop to the back of the spreader broke! As in there is a piece of 60 year old iron laying somewhere in the foot-tall grass in the field on which we spread the manure, I’m sure never to be seen again until a most inopportune moment arises.
