Disney Names New DVC Exec

Just a few days ago, we reported that Disney had let go its top DVC executive. It looks like they now have a replacement in Claire Bilby.

Ms. Bilby was appointed by Disney as the senior vice president of the Disney Vacation Club on Monday. The announcement came about three days after Disney fired the previous president Jim Lewis as well as two other executives. Financial difficulties concerning Aulani, a Hawaiian-based Disney resort set to open soon, may have lead to the dismissal of the executives and appointment of the experienced Ms. Bilby to the position.

The Paddock Pool at Disney's Saratoga Springs Resort and Spa reopened this past holiday weekend, transformed to a theme pool with some nice features.

Also on site for guests is a hot tub for relaxing and soaking those park-weary muscles. There's also the Paddock Grill that offers up all three meals, snacks and a kid-friendly selection.
