In January, 10 YDC kids went to Disney for the weekend to participate in Disney’s YES (Youth Educational Series) Program. On the first day they went to Disney’s Hollywood Studios, where they learned how movies are made, from storyboard to filming to editing.

The next day they went to Magic Kingdom, where they learned about Light and Sound. They even got to go backstage beneath the Haunted Mansion to see how light is used to create the illusion of ghosts.

On the final day they went to EPCOT, where they learned about different career paths and options. Everyone learned a lot and had a great experience.
