"Open Seasonally" Question

I've been looking at the August hours for Epcot and it says

# Wonders of Life - open seasonally

# Body Wars - open seasonally

# The Making of Me - open seasonally

Does this means they are closed or that they might be open when we go?

I would love to here a definitive answer on this too as it seems to vary.
I think looking at your countdown you will be 'seasonal' so these will be open.

When we went last year the Timekeeper in MK was open one of the days we were there but not another so it might mean "pot luck when you get there"

Only trouble with that one is that Timekeeper and carousel of progress were open because its a small world was closed for refurbishment. (as an exception to the rule I meant)

I think it probably means that Disney have left it so that they can open the attractions if the crowds warrant it.

Jakki - I hope I'm wrong but I think it means they will be shut
In December the Wonders of Life, Body Wars & The Making of Me was flagged as being open seasonally but was shut (as it has been for ages). I'm sure it's because it had got so tatty and run down and the old sponsor pulled out.

I have always assumed that "open seasonally" means that an attraction would be open during the busiest months and closed for refurb when less likely to cause disappointment i.e. during low season. As you are there in August I would have assumed that all of the attractions you mention would be open.

However this is a completely uninformed assumption of mine and maybe somebody else can clarify what "Open Seasonally" really means.

Sorry... no real help

we went on March 3rd of this year and those attractions were not open until easter week. i asked a cast member why and he said that the parks have to be very busy to justify opening them as they are not as popular as they used to be. (i have to say that they were pretty rubbish)
