Another Chip and Dale Fire Question

[seashell724]

If we are not staying onsite at a Disney property are we still allowed to participate in this? We will have 7 day passes to the parks if this makes a difference. If so do we just tell the "guard" at the car lot what we are there for?
Thank you friends!

YES !

Don't forget to Bring your own fixings for Smores or you can buy them at the Campfire. Also those playful chipmunks are also looking for a chocolate chip cookie!

Anyone at the resort can walk up and participate. You can bring your own fixings or buy them at a little shack near the firepit.

Does anyone have a copy of the chuck wagon menu they have open on those evenings? I'm interested in items/prices but can't find it online.

seashell, I took this picture in April 2013 with my phone but because it's taken at night, it's a little hard to read.

I do remember s'mores kits were $8.99 (some grahams, choco bars, and marshmallows) and long wooden sticks for your mallows were like 50 cents or so.

What time does the campfire start? We are going up there for the 8:30 HDDR and just want to go check out the show before. Would it be do able our should we forget it due to the time?

It depends on the time of year. Summer hours things start about 7:30, winter hours things start about 6:30.

We are going in November so we might be able to fit it in.

If you plan to go there on a day that you are at MK, you could take a boat there and then take a boat back to MK or the CR and then ride the Monorail to your car.
