's message, "National Discovery Network" on 17:07:04 07/26/05 Tue
My 2 y/o son was one of 1000's chosen to attend the national convention that is held each year in Myrtle beach. After our $400 fee to National discovery networks convention plus the costs of photographs and slides we have returned home thankful we DID NOT GET called back. This is a money making operation ONLY. The Ocean Dunes resort is where the convention is held and it is a rat hole. WE had a beautiful view of the ocean but the accomidations are hidious. The NDN employees are not professional looking. I was expecting at the least for them to have a shirt displaying they were actually with NDN. We registered in early friday morning and there were 4 early 20's looking NDN employees with whom we registered with. They never said "welcome" or "hello" or anything to that effect, They asked my sons name, told me it was an additional $50 to have my husband with us and I better have CASH cause that is all they acepted. I was handed my sons # for the compitition and told to be at rehearsal 2 hours later to walk down the runway. What a joke that was!!! The music was blaring out of the broken, scratchy speakers, it was Cher and rap music, my son covered his ears the whle time and was ready to leave. you walk on stage and then in 1 minute you are done. Thats it the rehersal for the actual show the next day when there are 20 talents agents looking at them. Why not have those chairs filled so when the real show happens the kids arn't scared because there are 20 more faces staring at them. It was not ORGANIZED at all from my standpoint, so I am so happy we did not follow up on our call back. We were out $400 plus hotel and gas, food but it could have been a whole lot more $.
