This is a tribute space to the Adventurers Club at Pleasure Island, Walt Disney World, Lake Buena Vista, Florida.
The Adventurers Club was opened in 1989 at Disney World's newly opened Pleasure Island entertainment complex. Its a one of a kind place and a night at the Adventurers Club is a truly unique experience.
The Backstory:
Club Origin: It is continually New Years Eve 1937 within, but I give you this excerpt from the official origin story of Pleasure Island, which as some of you may know, was founded by Merriweather Adam Pleasure in 1911:
In 1920, he has dinner with Sir Edwin Luytens, Charles Macintosh, and Ellel Saarinen, three of the premier architects of the day. Pleasure beats them in a hotly contested domino contest, and to fulfill their part of the bet, they design what will become Pleasure's "Adventurer's Club" on the restaurant tablecloth. The following year, the actual club is built. Pleasure moves in his vast library and archaeological trophy collection.

My Interests

I'd like to meet:

Well, you of course. But in order to become an Adventurers Club member, you will need to complete the three part New Member Induction Ceremony, starting with:
The official Adventurers Club handshake:
Take your right hand and place it horizontal to your solar plexus, fingers splayed. Give a few fishy waves. Lift your hand up and take a pretend drink from an invisible glass in your hand. Raise your hand to the heavens and yell out "Kungaloosh!"
The official Adventurers Club creed:
We climb the highest mountains, just to get a better view
We plumb the deepest oceans, because we're daring through and through
We cross the scorching desert, martini in our hand
We ski the polar icecaps, in tuxedo looking grand
We are reckless, brave and loyal
And valiant to the end
If you come in here a stranger
You will exit as a friend
(give the club salute!) KUNGALOOSH!
The official Adventurers Club theme song:
Marching along we're adventurers
Singing the song of adventurers
Up or Down
North, South, East or West
An adventurers life is best.
And while you're here you will want to meet the Permanent Club Members:
Club President Pamelia Perkins
Club Treasurer Otis Throckmorton Wren
Club Curator Fletcher Hodges

Many of you have already probably seen these in the various locations they have been posted but I would be remiss if I did not post them here as well. Write e-mails, write letters, send them "Jinkies"...
