Plaid Stories from Disneyland

Plaid Stories | PlaidStories.com

Plaid Stories is a collection conversations with former Disneyland Tour Guide, Hostesses, Hosts, and Guest Relations Cast Members.

Janet Tanasugarn, Mike Lynch, and Dave Tavres were Tour Guides at Disneyland, who take turns sharing our fun times, stories, and memories with other TGs about City Hall, backstage happenings, tour guests, and fellow cast members.

Janet began her Disneyland career in 1992 in foods, and transferred to Guest Relations about a year later. In 1996 she became the 1996 Disneyland Ambassador.

Mike came to Disneyland in 1989, almost by accident, and spent several in Guest Relations. He met his wife there, who also wore plaid, and has moved to become a professional voice-over artist.

Dave came to Disneyland in late 2002, worked in attractions for about 6 months before transferring into Guest Relations. He spent several years giving the ‘Walk in Walt’s Footsteps’ tour, and eventually moved to the Disneyland Railroad as an engineer.
