I have only been to conservation station once - for some reason it always seems boring. But I have a whole day planned at AK in January so maybe I should check it out.

The stage is nearly complete and they've been rehearsing for a while. It's cute, but nothing to plan your trip around. The best part (spoilers) is when one of the pigs from the petting yard tries to take over the show and turn it into "It All Started With a Pig".

cute. This should completely fill the void left by Festival of the Lion King closing (and Jammin' Jungle? If this is actually closing, Disney is remiss for not announcing it yet).

Guess that explains this permit:
Conservation Station - Outdoor stage show set: Demo existing stage set and install new set

It sounds like this is somewhat of a replacement for the old Pocahontas and her Forest Friends. It's sad that the white man had to come along and set fire to her forest and fry up her friends, all in a search for Unobtainium...

Yeah, did we ever see any conformation about the future of the DAK parade? Is it going away? If so, is it being replaced at some point in the near future?

It's not on the WDW calendar as of Jan 6.

Funny you should say that considering Walt's interest in quality entertainment dates back to a childhood effort in Marceline to put on a "circus" in the barn that mostly involved the farm animals. His mother made him refund the money the neighborhood kids paid and basically told him to strive for quality instead of ripping people off with low-quality entertainment. Clearly people in TDO need to hear this story.

Oh you mean the stroller parking!?

Thanks for posting. We take the train to Conservation Station at least once every trip and spend an hour or so; it's quiet, relaxing and educational. During our September trip, we did the usual stuff 'back there', but also were Wilderness Explorers doing the scavenger hunt (which included 'badges' at Rafiki's Planet Watch) and spent 20 minutes watching a surgery. (Btw, the youngest person in our group was 22 years old at the time 
)

Past presentations at Conservation Station were just that, presentations. I hope that this new offering doesn't end up with management adding this to FP+......and yes, I'm being sarcastic. But seriously, I hope they don't over-hype this. As I recall, the performance area that I'm thinking of, holds maybe 50+/- guests.

Sorry - It was not there last week I don't spend time obsessing about schedules for attractions where I am not going to be. Especially since I cancelled our holiday trip which was to start next Monday in favor of staying home.

Understandable, but then why comment without first checking the source? This isn't CNN.
It's not? I've wondered a lot over the last ten years why the news was so theme park and central Florida centric.

From what I hear, the parade will stick around until FotLK reopens. Nothing official though.

That would make considerably more sense. I would be pretty surprised if it ended after the 1st of the year given that it's been on the schedule for so long. That would be particularly tacky.
