Orange Lake activities question

[snowlady]

My children (ages 7 & 9) enjoyed the basketball shootout and splash lagoon slide races and received tokens just for participating. They also both LOVE to play Putt Putt.

They also had a special program when we were there that we never got to try. They had some people from Gatorland coming to the resort on some mornings for an Alligator program. I don't know if they will continue this, but I'm sure my children would have liked it. Maybe someone here will have more info on this.

If you like Country and Western Music, the entertainment on the Barbeque night is very good. My mom and sister really enjoyed this last year and this year. My kids even like it!

They used to do a little "Family Bingo" thing in the concourse area (near the indoor playground). It was free and the prizes were things like OLCC fanny packs and generic Hot Wheels cars. It may have only been once a week.

OL Activities

Hey Scott:

If you don't bring your clubs, make sure to go to the "swings the thing golf clinic" (Monday afternoon). All of their pros put on an exhibition using all of the clubs in the bag which is alot of fun. If you have time to stay afterward, they have some clubs in a barrell to use and they let you hit some balls while one of their pros gives you some instruction. They usually have had a raffle where they raffle off some high-end golf equipment. Checked my OL brochure for club rental rates (as of Sept 05), rates for the Legends was $25 and $15 for the 9 hole courses.

In addition, The welcome party is a good time if your new to OL. During the week there is a gatorland alligator show, the hawaiian luau show (you don't have to go to the dinner to see the outdoor show). There is also the morning aqua fit aerobics in the pool and morning walk

Steve,

That golf exhibition sounds like fun. Thank you for the tip. If I really knew I was going to get some golfing in I would have planned to bring my clubs, but for one possible day on the course it doesn't make sense to lug them. Especially when I have so many suit cases of kids stuff to haul on and off the plane.

We will also have to check out the other parties, they sound like a lot of fun.
