MouseFest 2008: Fort Wilderness Lights and Dogs Tour: 12/10 @ 6p

[Cruiser]

The Legend of Boone and Crockett

Born to simple, bandanna wearing parents with a love for headgear with mouse ears, Boone was adopted as a pup by a couple settling in America to sell covered wagons for the great trek West, while Crockett was adopted by a couple headed north to create the first bank/pin shoppe in the Canadian wilderness. The brothers were reunited in Florida when the two couples came to explore the magical waters surrounding Kissimmee. Drawn by some inner voice to the only forest with a castle view, they found their home.

For decades Boone and Crockett, the pioneer dogs of Fort Wilderness Campground and Resort, have lavishly decorated their campground for the holiday season. Some of the campers even join in the celebrations.

This year, Boone and Crockett invite all Taginators to come and enjoy their festive home during MouseFest! Oooh and Aaaah over the decorations. See RV owners enjoying the fact Disney pays for the electricity with 27 meters of lights per site and inflatables everywhere. Bring your cameras to photograph the holiday festivities and bring your voice to join in the sing-a-long, including a special holiday carol written especially for the tour!

After your tour of the lights, their descendants Elphie, Morgan & Casey Boone and Zak & Zoë Crockett will have some refreshments for you, featuring treats from their home regions and not available anywhere else! Plus, you take home your very own exclusive pin featuring Boone and Crockett!

This is one campsite - there are lots more like it!

Please join us.

We accidentally did this a couple years ago when we stayed on the internal bus a little too long. I was amazed at some of the incredibly elaborate spectacles we got to see!

This sounds like a very enjoyable meet and a perfect way to complement the fun at Trails End!

So Amy . . . does that mean you're coming?

Oh, yes. I guess I should have made that a bit more clear.
