Is this updated for this year's character times at the resorts? I tried downloading the PDFs of multiple resorts and none of them included Halloween day character meet info

Yes, if you see Ocotber on the PDF, it is 2017

I pulled up Pop Century and they didn’t have any Halloween activities listed on their Rec calendar. Does this mean they won’t be any trick or treating, etc?

kennythepirate

Tuesday 10th of October 2017

It does not mean that. Just means they didn't add it. Probably around 4-6pm
