We used the GAC for my son in February for the first time and it worked out very well.In 38 days we will be returning to WDW.This will be the first time bringing our kids to Blizzard Beach.Do you use it (the GAC) there also?
And also,I noticed a lot of folks with their cards in plastic holders hooked on lanyards.Does anyone know where to pick one of those up? Thanks in advance!

No, the GAC is only for the theme parks.
You can pick one up in any of the theme parks and it will be valid in any theme park, but they don't use GACs at the water parks.

If you look in the disABILITIES FAQs thread, in post #3, you will find links to the WDW website's Guidebooks for Guests with Disabilities for each park, including the water parks.

You can find them in lots of places at WDW - most shops sell ribbon type Disney lanyards and also have little plastic envelopes to attach to the lanyard.
You can find them in various places outside WDW too. I've seen them at Walmart recently by the fishing and hunting stuff - people use them to hold their licenses. I've also seen them at office supply stores - people use them for their ID badges or for ID at conferences.

We do not have any "alternate entrances" at any attraction at the water parks. For the slides or raft rides you have to go up stairs. At TL they are built into the side of hills and part of the theming, at BB they are more like a typical water park and free-standing. The only exception is Crush 'N Gusher at TL where there is an elevator available.

Oh, good.
I was hoping Cheshire Figment would be along.
