Good morning WebmasterDOC - we will be at Disney's HHI resort in late September and wondered how we could find a calendar of activities for the island not just the resort. Thanks
 
Thanks Webmaster Doc! We read your "goings on on HHI' every month and it's thanks to you that DH now gets his free beer, salsa, and chips every Thanksgiving morning after the Piggly Wiggly Turkey Trot. To the PP, I think the best way to find out the calendar of events on the island is right here from WbMstr Doc. I have the "Island Packet" (HHI's newspaper) APP on my phone, yet I always seem to find out more here.
