My DS's high school band will be marching down Main Street on Mardi Gras Day next year. The date will be February 24, 2004. I have a number of questions if anyone can help.

Is this date around President's Day - we don't celebrate that here and know that it is between the 2 holidays - is it the 16th next year? Will this be a crowded time of year?

When is the winter break for the northern schools - I have heard that this is a crowded time.

We are just starting to look into the trip and need some information. The rates this year for that time show it is peak season. Is it the same each year approx.?

My brother called yesterday from Epcot and said that the parks have been empty since they arrived on Friday. They have been able to stay on the rides until they are ready to get off. Kali River Rapids - 4 times, TofT 7 times, RaRC - 5 times. Is there any chance that it will be as slow - this is Mardi Gras week - the big day is tomorrow and all schools are closed.


Thanks.
 
You are correct. February 16, 2004 is President's Day. Some schools get that entire week off. They should be returning back to school as your son arrives. However, the peak season should still be in effect.

How exciting for his band! Congratulations.
