Those lucky kids who got to see the Mice live shows at Disneyland are gathering today to remember old times at the Shakey's Pizza in Anaheim.  This Shakey's was a hotspot for Mice sightings during the show's filming.  Roll call for this reunion includes fans Dale, Trish, Ken (w/ family), Steve, Tim, and of course Karen.

Screenshots from The Facts of Life, Season 9 Episode 24, The Beginning of the Beginning.
Some Friday this month in 1998 (let us know if you have the exact date), the last episode of The Facts of Life was filmed. On that day, the cast made a pact to never film a reunion movie.  Only Nancy McKeon kept her word.

On today's NBC Sports World, Lisa is one of the celebrities at the John Denver Celebrity Pro Am Skiing Tournament.  Hosts are Denver himself and a pre-Kardashian Bruce Jenner.  The event takes place at Heavenly Valley Resort in Lake Tahoe, Nevada.  

This clip is of the closing credits, where we get to hear Lisa sing -- twice!  

If you have more media from this event (pictures, souvenirs), or a story about being there, please share! ​
Here are the closing credits, in which Lisa and other participants sing Denver's "Country Roads".

During the month of March, Disney Studios is still looking for their 12 Mouseketeers.  They've narrowed the search to 40 kids.  
Would love to hear from those other 28!  Let us know if you went through auditions for NMMC.  Would also like to see pictures!
