I haven't been to the Animation Academy since my youngest was born last year. My girls were saying that you can only draw Olaf there now. Is that correct? We used to love to look at the board and make sure we were back at the right time to draw my girls favorite characters. I would hate to think it's all Olaf, all the time now...

I did Baymax and Donald in May. The draw a snowman signs were still up, and the sandwich board wasn't out (they claim it broke, I'm not sure I believe that), but it was Olaf like every 3rd session and some other stuff scattered throughout the day. They did play Let it Go like 3 times while I waited, too. I haven't been back in the back lot area since then, because, Frozen.
 
We are going to do this in Nov I did not know they changed the chrs around maybe I can figure out when they do others and what other kinds too. I would love if they did Lion king or something like that too.
 

When we were there in September they had the board up outside that listed the times of the classes and the character to be drawn. They had a lot of different characters!
 
We were there a couple weeks ago. Lots of different characters. We did Donald, Sally, Jack, Pooh and Piglet. Can you tell my kids LOVE this??? I took a photo of the board out front with the times, so we could hit all the ones we wanted to. :) Have fun!
 
We did this on this past Thursday. They had the board out with the times and tons of characters offered. We did the steamboat Minnie one around 12pm :)

Yes, I stopped by there on Friday of last week, and they had a huge array of characters to draw, every 20 minutes. It ranged from classic characters (Mickey and Minnie) to Jack and Sally (Nightmare B4 Christmas) and everything in between. They have the schedule posted out in front of the building, and the CM at the entrance of the attraction also has a schedule.
 
Thanks for all the replies! We're taking my BIL next week (he hasn't been since he was a kid, so this will be his first time visiting DCA) and want to squeeze in everything! :)
