  • Wear sunscreen and protect yourself from the sun. Hats and sunglasses are also a good idea.
  • Make sure and hydrate! Drink water before the walk and carry it with you.
  • Connect with your team contact person.
    • Make sure that they have your number and you have theirs. It makes meeting up so much easier in the morning!
    • Know when and where you are meeting with your team so you can plan accordingly.
  • Allow more time than you think you need for parking and getting from the Mickey and Friend’s parking structure.
  • Bring your smile! You are making a great difference for a lot of kids! Yes, it’s early but it’s worth it!
