I worked at the Lost and Found at Disneyland for several years in the early 90's. We'd receive hundreds of items every day and mailed quite a large percentage back to their owners, although most items went unclaimed.

One of the suggestions I've given people with kids that want to get character autographs is to put the return information "This book belongs to..." in the front. Since the child will most likely lose it.

And when they do if it get turns back in Disney will send it back.

I've heard tails of people losing the books, and the books getting back home before the people do.

It was a wonderful story :)

This is just another one of those things that Cast Members do that makes Disney a cut above the rest. Without those dedicated Cast Members - those who genuinely want to make the World a better place - are the reason that my family wants to go to WDW every chance we get. I have heard some reports about Cast Members that were not up to par, but I've never had a bad experience with one. They do a great job of recruiting and training Cast Members!

It is A YEAR OF A MILLION DREAMS!!! I heard about this on a local radio station and I started to think that its because of stories like this that people will always go to WDW!

Look around your co-workers next time you get a chance.

Now how many of them would you get to help if you asked for volunteers to go through someone elses trash?

Customer service way beyond the norm in true Disney style.

Amen to that! Our Disney vacations have been nothing short of magical each time. It's always neat to see other people in the parks experience the same magic - especially when it's their first time to the parks. :wave:
To do the improbable, we first have to dream the impossible.
