Liking the idea that nothing so far is out during our visit, but I’m sure that will change as it gets closer..
I heard that EPCOT CM’s were told estimated dates of April 15th – Sept. 21st, but nothing in confirmed yet.
Any idea when in April Test track will be shut down?
The only thing (thus far) that will be closed while we’re there is the Hoop De Doo Review, and we weren’t planning on that anyway. 🙂 *Fingers crossed that things stay open* 🙂
