See you there!

The Biggest Smile Ever!!! (literally)

We have a HUGE announcement! Literally the Biggest announcement we have ever made!

On World Smile Day October 1st we are going to break a world record for the biggest smiley face :)

And you could be apart of it! More detailed information to come. But write it on your calender and tell your family and friends.

This is going to be the largest smiling face not only Orlando but the world has ever seen!

How are the winners getting to Orlando?

We have 67 winners coming to Orlando on October 1st! That is a lot of people traveling from all over the world to come celebrate a special world smile event with us.

You might be wondering how all these people are traveling to the city of smiles. By boat? One super large bus? Think again. Think better:

Airtran!


Airtran flies many smiling faces to Orlando everyday from all over the country and we are happy to say that our winners will soon be a part of those smiling faces :)

Thanks Airtran for helping so many people’s dreams come true!

The final numbers…

Kyle Post, Stacey Doornbos

So the online smile story submission time has ended and we have been blown away by all of the entries.  Over the past few months we have received 19,000 entries from 77 countries across the world all telling us why Orlando makes them smile… and yes, Kyle and Stacey read every single one of them!  Orlando makes people smile for THOUSANDS of reasons; from childhood memories, to life love stories.  From a love for the amusement parks to a an obsession for the food and shopping… the smiles that are created in Orlando spread across the globe!

So what now?!  Well that’s a good question.  For starters, we have a few more winners up our sleeves, so don’t lose hope yet for a call from Orlando telling you that you’ve won a trip.  We are also working hard on what exactly the winners will be doing when they’re in Orlando and we can’t wait to give you more details on that soon!

Thanks so much to everyone (all 19,000 of you) for your amazing Orlando Smile Stories.  They have certainly made us smile, and we hope that reliving your Orlando memories made you smile too!

It couldn’t be easier to enter! And the prize couldn’t be more fun!

Getting down to the line

We’re getting down to the last few online smile story winners folks!  Will your entry be the next to win?  We hope so!  Our most recent winner is Kim from Lewiston Maine who writes:

“25 years ago my husband Bob and I spent our Honeymoon in Orlando; just remembering how young and silly we were makes me smile”

We hope you’re smiling just as much if not more after 25 years of marriage Kim… and we’re excited to meet you in Orlando in just over a month!

25 years… I wonder how many new attractions there are in Orlando since your Honeymoon?!

The winners keep comin’!

That’s right!  We’ve got another winning submission.  We loved Karla’s entry from Albuquerque, NM:

When we go to Orlando my sister & I can be kids again… except we won’t get grounded this time!

Hahaha indeed Karla.  You won’t get grounded at all… in fact you will be a part of a World Record breaking attempt to have the most smiles in one place at one time!  You will also get a flight, transportation in Orlando, hotel stay, tickets to a park and more!  I would say that’s far from being grounded!

Remember you have 1 week to get your submissions in if you want to be a part of our Special World Smile Event on Oct 1st.  We don’t know what we’re going to do with ourselves when we’re not reading the hundreds of smile stories we get each week!

Another Winner!

The winners keep on comin’ for our big event on October 1st!  Our most recent winning online submission is from David in Iowa who wrote:

Orlando makes me smile because it is the best place on Earth for smile-watching and smiling is contagious!

Short, simple and oh so true!  We may have found a lot of our 67 winners, but we don’t have ALL of them yet! You have until September 3rd to enter your smile story for a chance to win.  So start thinking about why Orlando makes you smile.  Dream about it, envision it, meditate on it and then SUBMIT it because we’re getting down to the wire and want to see YOUR smiling face in Orlando on October 1st!
