Hi
I tried to send this via Private Message to Syko, but it wouldn't work for some reason. I just wanted her to know that I sent in an e-mail to Disney, and this is what I wrote:
Hello
My name is Donna Konuch, I live in Tallahassee, FL and have gone to Walt Disney World at least 8 times in the past 3 years. My family holds Seasonal Passes and as of today, we belong to the Disney Vacation Club.
As a hobby, I run marathons and will be participating in the Princess Half Marathon in March of 2009. I understand from a past participant of Disney Marathons, who participates in a wheel chair, that Disney has created an allegedly discriminatory race time for wheel chair racers to qualify.
As wonderful and normally inclusive as Disney usually is, I am completely shocked and appalled by this. It is my hope, and others I am sure, that Disney will not blatantly discriminate against the handicapable, and risk that kind of publicity which may tarnish Disney's normally wonderful reputation.
Please do what you can to make this change and include everyone in your marathon activities, whether they walk, run or wheel.
Yours Sincerely,
Donna L. Konuch
Tallahassee, FL
