Imagination Station holds Disney Rally Day
Disney Give a Day, Get a Disney Day wraps up!

Toledo, Ohio – Imagination Station has been participating in the national Give a Day, Get a Disney Day ticket offer since early February. Since the science center was chosen by Disney to be a local volunteer organization, we’ve helped hundreds of people earn free admission tickets to Disney parks through volunteer hours. At the culmination of our final event, 2400 hours will have been donated by 600 people.

As that final event, the science center is proudly hosting a Disney Rally Day, this Saturday, March 20, where 320 individuals will scour the city delivering posters and flyers about our current special exhibition, Animation, featuring Cartoon Network. With most area schools on Spring Break soon, it’s an ideal time to visit Imagination Station and check out this highly interactive exhibit.

Volunteers for the Disney Rally Day will arrive at Imagination Station at 9:00am, enjoy a light breakfast with the other participants, receive their instructions, take a quick group photo and be there way by 10:00am. Media opportunities will be ideal during this time. After completion of their task, participants are invited to come back to the science center to spend the remainder of the day.

Disney designated 1 million tickets to be utilized for this program and acknowledged that when they were gone, they were gone. Disney announced publicly last week that their allotment of tickets had been reached with those participants already committed

to the program.

“Our organization places tremendous value on the participation of volunteers,” said Lori Hauser, Imagination Station’s Executive Director, “That’s why we were thrilled to be a part of Disney’s initiative.”

Disney volunteers at Imagination Station participated as families, some with

children as young as 6 years old, and helped within the science center doing spring cleaning, administrative work and with the Disney Rally Day, marketing. This Saturday will mark a total of 8 special Disney events at the science center.

The Imagination Station, located on the downtown Toledo riverfront, is a science center dedicated to delivering science and technology based programming to youth and their families throughout Northwest Ohio and Southeast Michigan.
