UPDATE 6/20: As of 4:51 am, Our Fiskars Birthday Party at Epcot is now FULL. Be sure to check back here on the Fiskateer’s website for the announcement and details of a HUGE On-line Fiskars Birthday Party. Hope to see you there!
Fiskateers, it’s party time! Happy 360th birthday Fiskars! Wow . . . for 360 years Fiskars has been manufacturing tools to better and beautify people’s lives. We all know how Fiskars has enriched our lives as Fiskateers.
This is another example of that . . . Fiskars wants you to come and celebrate with them at Epcot Theme Park in Orlando, FL. Fiskars has planned a special VIP event for Fiskateers ONLY, including a private VIP meeting room with some amazing Disney magic, fantastic food, special guests, and to conclude the evening . . . fireworks.
Ordinarily, this type of opportunity would cost $500 per person, but as Fiskars gift to you, it will only cost you $30 dollars! Wow, thank you Fiskars for paying the difference! Dinner, dessert, laser show, crop space and special treats will be a part of this fun adventure. You will need to provide your own hotel arrangements and transportation as they won’t be included in this fantastic opportunity.
The event is planned for Monday, July 27th from 1 p.m. to 9:30 p.m. at Disney’s Epcot Theme Park. Those of you planning on attending will meet at the VIP gate at 1 p.m. and will be escorted to a special crop room/meeting space.
Seating is limited, to RSVP and save your spot please mail your check (made out to Fiskars ) for $30 to:
Fiskars
c/o Brent McHenry
2537 Daniels Street
Madison, WI 53718
and RSVP to Carrie at Brains on Fire by sending her an email to carrie@brainsonfire.com. You will need to give her your name, email address, fiskateer number and phone number.
So Fiskateers . . . come one, come all . . . we’d love to have you join us at the “Happiest Place On Earth” for a spectacular Fiskars birthday celebration. I know so many of you . . . “You are the happiest people on Earth” so what a perfect fit. You won’t want to miss this party. Can’t you see Mickey . . . with big orange scissors in hand? It’s going to be one fun party!
And those of you that can’t make it to Florida . . . no worries, watch for some on line fun. It’s a party all the way around!
Update 6/19: Carrie (accepting the RSVP’s as listed above) left the following comment below ealier today at 2:24 pm eastern time: “Spots are going very fast. We will son be on a wait list. Please email me if you would like to attend. This is first come first served.”

June 15th, 2009 at 1:55 pmsounds like a great time! Is it still only a 1 day event or are there other things going on to make the trip more feasible? don’t get me wrong 8 hours of disney and Fiskars is great but for those of us a long way from there we would have to justify the air fare etc. Unless of course there is still some plans for something at headquarters later this fall in Wisconsin?
