There will be something for everyone to enjoy during this weekend. Disney World is an option, considering we will be in Kissimmee, however, there's more to Disney World than the theme parks. Disney Springs and the Disney Boardwalk are just two examples of Disney World Destinations that are FREE to visit, and funfilled for the entire family. Don't let the cost of the Theme Parks keep you from attending the reunion. The reunion is about family and there will be loads of activities and things to do that will not break the bank. Let's continue to create memories in 2024.
Registration Fee is only $60 (13 and up), $40 (5 to 12yrs) and FREE (4 and under).
Food, Drinks and Activities at the Friday Meet and Greet, Saturday Luncheon/Banquet, Sunday Family Meeting and one T-shirt are included in the Registration Fee.
Here are some FREE activites you can enjoy during your FREE time at the reunion:
Disney’s BoardWalk
Disney’s BoardWalk is built around a lake and is beautifully themed to be reminiscent of Cape May or Coney Island in the 1940s. It’s fun just walking around and enjoying the atmosphere! If you are staying on Disney property, you can use Disney transportation to get to the BoardWalk. If you drive to the BoardWalk, you can get a FREE 3-hour parking permit from the lot attendant. While some of the restaurants are open at lunchtime, the best time to visit the BoardWalk is after sunset. It’s beautifully lit up.
Ride the Skyliner
You can ride the Disney Skyliner cable-car system for FREE and get some great views of Walt Disney World from above. Each cabin can hold up to 10 people, and can accommodate people with wheelchairs, scooters (ECVs) and strollers. There is cross ventilation to provide air flow and reflective windows to cut down on the glare of direct sunlight.
Disney Springs
If you like to shop (or window shop), you’ll enjoy this attractive shopping and restaurant zone, which also offers some great FREE entertainment. If you are staying on Disney property, you can use Disney transportation to get to Disney Springs. If you are staying at a Disney Spring resort area hotel, you can take the bus or walk. Otherwise you’ll probably need to drive or take a taxi. Parking is FREE.
Take a Boat Ride
This is enjoyable any time of day, but particularly beautiful and romantic at night. Cruise the loop around Crescent Lake, which visits Epcot, Boardwalk, Yacht/Beach Club, Swan/Dolphin, and Disney’s Hollywood Studios without going into the parks for FREE.
Celebration
Just 5 miles from the host resort hotel: Wyndham Orlando Resort & Conference Center, Celebration Area, you can travel back in time to find the town of Celebration, a planned community originally developed by the Walt Disney Company. This is a pedestrian-friendly, wonderful small town (think Mayberry!) You can have a great time exploring the old-fashioned downtown area called Market Street absolutely FREE. Here are some ideas to take advantage of during your tour, that will cost you little or nothing, as well as a couple of splurges to consider.
Ride the Monorail
You can take three different Monorail rides at Walt Disney World, absolutely FREE. The best overall ride is the “inner” Monorail that circles the three Monorail resorts (Contemporary, Polynesian and Grand Floridian). This is a great way to orient yourself and get a look at the resorts and an overview of the Magic Kingdom. You can get off and explore each resort, or just enjoy the ride and the view. You can also ride the express Monorail that just goes between the Ticket and Transportation Center and the Magic Kingdom for the same view, but no stops at the resorts. It also tends to get more crowded. The Monorail to Epcot is also a nice trip, and on the way to Epcot from the Ticket and Transportation Center you take a quick turn through Epcot for a great view of the park.
