    Tom Sawer Island closing date

    I personally feel they are on a fast track to deal with Epic Universe. Seems like they are scrambling to catch up.... I'd like to get the visit in sooner rather than later. I would just like to know if can wait till the spring or not. RP

    Tom Sawer Island closing date

    Yes I know, the question is when TSI going to close. I would like to plan a trip before that so I can experience it one last time. RP

    Tom Sawer Island closing date

    Hello all, Apologies in advance for the question, I'm sure it must have been discussed already, but frustratingly searching (here and on the web) turns up nothing definitive. I'd like to plan a trip just to experience TSI one last time before it closes, but I cannot seem to find a firm closing...

    MK Frontierland Shootin' arcade to close and replaced with DVC Member lounge

    I'm afraid that's going to be next with the new land behind it. But I think we have some time left for a last hurrah on that one. I went on a solo trip last weekend and got my fill of the arcade. Time to move on, it's pretty dated now. RP

    Frontierland Shootin' arcade

    Hello all! Just a follow up. It was a successful solo weekend for me. Just FYI it's free again so no need for the quarters. And I made sure to hit every target several times. One elusive target was the moving train in the background. It had 4 targets on it and I think you were supposed to...

    Anyone know of a source with any back story or details on the shooting range? RP

    MK Frontierland Shootin' arcade to close and replaced with DVC Member lounge

    This has been elusive to me since I was a boy of 4 or 5 years old. My parents wouldn't let me do it because they said it cost extra money and we spent enough!! This was in '74! Ever since I get upset when for some reason I can't stop and we have to walk by. I'm in SC for the summer and I am...

    Frontierland Shootin' arcade

    Thanks guys! W are CCV owners, so we have explored WL quite a bit. It's our home - we just love it. Not using DVC points on a short trip like this so all star Music it is. Kinda looking forward to exploring that resort. We never get over there. Funny story the times my parents took us in...

    Frontierland Shootin' arcade

    Hey all, I am working on an assignment in SC and my wife just booked for me a weekend stay from NY for a solo trip for me. I am really hoping to get a chance to visit the Shootin' arcade as I understand that this is closing or may even be closed by now. From what I can tell it looks like it is...

    Trip Report Memories from 1973-75

    Rumor has it, shooting range will close on or about Memorial day. I am working in SC this summer from May to August so I might have to buzz down for a one day adult alone trip......

    Trip Report Memories from 1973-75

    I certainly will. I was a little disappointed because I know we drove our '73 suburban from NY at that trip and stayed in the Poly. I was hoping to have some footage including either but no. I presume it was awkward taking the 8mm films. My father only took footage really while we were...

    Trip Report Memories from 1973-75

    I had several old 8mm films recently converted to digital. I only got to watch them quickly but there is this gem I extracted quickly and I had to share. The reel is labeled '73, but there are others labeled '75 that is obviously same trip. I know we purchased a brand new Chevy Suburban in...
