BradyBzLyn...Mo 2,023 Posted May 25, 2012 Report Share Posted May 25, 2012 From the Disney Parks blog... Brave – The Highland Games Tournament Runs June 1-July 8 at Epcotposted on May 25th, 2012 by Jennifer Fickley-Baker, Social Media ManagerLast week, Disney Parks Blog Author Shawn Slater shared a look at the new Merida meet-and-greet experience that’s already begun at Magic Kingdom Park. But I’m happy to announce that Magic Kingdom is not the only one of the Disney Parks that’s getting in on the fun of the new Disney•Pixar film, “Brave.”From June 1-July 8, Epcot will serve as the setting for Brave – The Highland Games Tournament, a kid-focused offering that will include games like Mini Caber Toss, Cake Toss, Haggis Flip and archery. There will also be a kids’ playground with free enhanced wireless – which is great for us parents who can’t share cute photos of their kids on Twitter and Facebook fast enough!Brave – The Highland Games Tournament will take place on the Rose Walk (right where Future World blends into World Showcase), from 11 a.m.-7 p.m., daily. Park admission is required.http://disneyparks.disney.go.com/blog/2012/05/brave-the-highland-games-tournament-runs-june-1-july-8-at-epcot/ Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Tri-Circle-D 2,059 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 What's the deal with "free enhanced wireless?"Is that a first in a WDW park?It's about time.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
CCIntrigue...aka Gwen 547 Posted May 29, 2012 Report Share Posted May 29, 2012 I for one won't be carrying my laptop into the park. I guess this is great news for those of you with smart phones. (I refuse to pay the price.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
AC in A2......Aaron 693 Posted May 30, 2012 Report Share Posted May 30, 2012 I think this is a great idea.....the games and the free wireless. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

(I refuse to pay the price.)The dumb thing about this is that anyone who is a serious Twitter or Facebook user already has access to those sites via their phones.So, you're right, Gwen, who is going to bring a laptop into a park?We did see a young lady using her ipad to take photos on our last visit. My girls thought that was a hoot.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites

So, now you know.TCD Quote Link to post Share on other sites
