Pocahontas and her New Forrest Friends?

It seems that Pocahontas isn’t completely out of a job at Camp Minnie-Mickey yet! Thanks to our good friend Tim Sayler over at the Walt Disney Boards we have been able to gather some information about a new and unique offering at Camp Minnie-Mickey inside of Disney’s Animal Kingdom. The space that formerly housed Pocahontas and Her Forrest Friends is now called the Good Times Gathering Spot and houses an interactive meet and greet location which includes storytelling by Pocahontas as well as meet and greet opportunities with Pocahontas, Chip and Dale, Koda and Kenai, and Meeko, a DJ playing children’s music and other fun games and dances with the characters.

This offering came very quietly, so look for an official announcement sometime in the future if it proves popular. This is the second time we have seen an offering like this at Animal Kingdom come without an official announcement to welcome it (the first was with the new closing ceremony which was announced at least a month after it began). Thanks to Tim for these great photos, you can find more photos and his full report here.

Stay tuned to WDW News Today as we expect more details on this new offering when Tom returns from his trip at Walt Disney World next week.
