Camping first time at the fort..magic band and ticket question

[Squrl]

Hi all, I'm a newbie poster here, long time lurker! We are leaving for the fort on Friday and so excited! This will be our first time staying on Disney property, and our first visit since the introduction of magic bands. I'm sure this answer is somewhere, but I haven't been able to find it. We booked our reservation and bought 3 day tickets thru the Disney website. When we check into the fort, is there anything we need to do with our magic bands to activate our tickets? I have MDE set up with our fast passes each day. Or do we just go to the turnstiles at Epcot on Monday (our first park day) and get a green Mickey? Thanks so much for your help on a really basic question!

If you did the purchase through Disney, and you have already been able to setup your FPs, then you are good to go. We didn't even put our MBs on until after we had setup the site. You just go through checkin and they take care of all of it for you.

The first time you go through a turnstile you'll scan your band then you'll have to scan one of your fingers (make certain you remember which one because you'll use that same finger each time you go into additional parks).

There's something about your name...

Oh boy! She's going to fit right in here.
to posting on the Camping Fourm. Sounds like you've already figured out the usual band of characters.
