YC & BC activities...treasure hunt?

[wildernesslodgelover]

My girlfriend is telling me either at the YC or BC there is some sort of treasure hunt for kids. It costs around $25 and the kids do it without the parents. I think she may be confusing it with the GF Pirate thingy, but she is sure she heard about it at BC/YC.

Has anyone else heard of this?

Your girlfriend is correct,

"The new activity is called the Albatross Cruise, which departs from the Yacht Club Bayside Marina. Similar to the Pirate Cruise, the children wear bandanas and venture around Crescent Lake and Epcot in search of map clues. While following these clues, the children will visit many exotic "ports of call" (or resort marinas) to collect treasure. During the voyage, the children will enjoy a reading of "The Legend of Albatross", and at the final port of call they will have lunch and split up their treasure. Lunch consists of a peanut butter & jelly sandwich, cookie and juice box. And their pirate treasure includes "gold" coins, mardi gras beads, rings, pirate eye patches, small compasses, rubber bugs, stickers, etc.
Currently the activity is only being offered on Wednesdays at 9:30am and is two hours long. Like our other children activities, the tour is offered to children between the ages of 4-10. Two cast members will accompany the children on the cruise, one of whom is a lifeguard."

Thanks Tammi! I thought she was nuts! I went to allearsnet and could not find any info. Good to know...I wish it was offered more often than one day a week, but we will have to see if we can fit it into our next trip.
