Rumor has it that it will be repositioned at it's original docking place next to the America's Gardens Theater on June 5.

Originally Posted By TDLFAN I smiled back then quite a lot, when WDW's standards were a bit higher than now... Anyways.. yes, I was there at 7am for the opening ceremonies. I also worked at EPCOT Center the first weekend of Sept 1982 during "Construction Workers' Family preview" days.
