Community Hall activities? Unbirthday?

[lenshanem]

DH just back form OKW. I was reading the activities list for their Community Hall. Looks fun.
Very similar to VB and HH lists I've read, but just not quite as many activities planned each day?
Do many people show up for them?
I saw OKW has an unbirthday party. What do they do? Is a character there?

Does BWV have a similar list as OKW? Do they also have an unbirthday party there, too?

I just booked the Alice tea party at GF for my girls. Is the unbirthday party similar?

Thanks!

I believe the "unbirthday party" is only at OKW. Have not known anyone who took part in it, 'cuz our "kids" are grown.

Does anyone know how far out you have to make reservations for the activities? I saw many had a R by it. I thought some of these would be good rainy day activities for us at BWV if their list is similar.

I know VWL and BCV do not have Community Halls. Do either of their sister resorts have activities similar in scope, also?

Will SSR have a Community Hall?

Our kids have been taking part of the unbirthday party since age 3 or 4, that is the youngest I think they allow. The first 12 kids who sign up for it are in. We usually sign up that morning. Only once was it already sold out and once (last trip) canceled as we were the only two kids. The other 10 or 12 times was very enjoyable and fun. it is a small birthday party set up with contests like cupcake eating, goofy bingo, musical chairs. etc. Prizes are awarded to the winners. They get balloons and hats too. Once it was my sons actual birthday but they gave him no special attention as everyone at the unbitrthday party is having an unbirthday!! My boys really enjoy it and Mary Anne and crew at the community hall make it alot of fun! Nice for the parents too as we have about a half hour pool time to ourselves.

The number of participants at OKW varies day to day. Reservations are usuallu easy to get the same day. I found more participants at HH when we stayed there.

Yes SSR will have a community hall with activities. If you notice activities that are successful at one resort (such as Goofy Bingo at HH) are often tried out at another to see if guests will like it there as well.
I believe that Alice's Tea Party at GF is more formalized and has Alice! No characters at the unbirhtday party. I've met members whose kids insist on attending the unbirthday party on every visit!

As far as I know there are no similar activities at BCV or VWL. I have heard that folks staying at BCV do use Community Hall at BWV and attend some of the activities.

The activities are limited because many folks are doing the parks.

So this is OK? Will BCV give us an activities list for BWV's Community Hall when we check in if we ask?

Where do you sign up for the activities in the morning/ Can you call if you are staying at BCV?

Thanks!
