If you're heading to Disneyland this summer, you're in luck! The California Adventure theme park will have a "Summer of Heroes" event all summer long, which will have for a limited time:

Avengers Training Initiative

Black Widow and Hawkeye assemble young recruits for a series of tests to see if they have what it takes to join the ranks of the Avengers.

Heroic Encounter: Black Widow

Black Widow will arrive on the scene several times throughout the day in an armored Avengers vehicle for her heroic encounter with park guests.

Grab a Piece (or Bite) of the Action

All that heroism making you hungry? Want a token as proof of your adventures when you get home? Special themed merchandise and food will be available throughout Hollywood Land.

And permanent things such as:

Guardians of the Galaxy: Awesome Dance Off!

Don't be surprised if you run into the Guardians of the Galaxy on their way to the Milano, with Star-Lord firing up his old-school boom box to get the party started. Gamora may prefer to stand back and observe, but everyone else is bound to get in the groove and show off their moves during this awesome rock 'n' roll bash!

Super Hero Encounters

For the first time, citizens of Earth will come face-to-face with Groot, one of the Guardians of the Galaxy! You can also step up to meet the First Avenger, Captain America, along with everyone's favorite web slinger, your friendly neighborhood Spider-Man.

Currently you can meet Thor and Captain America in Tomorrowland inside Disneyland, but this is the most Marvel any of the U.S. parks has had since Disney bought Marvel. This of course will lead up to the eventual Marvel Land, which hopefully will be announced officially at this years D23. Of course the park is doing this around the opening of their newest ride, "Guardians of the Galaxy: Breakout" which will open May 27. MiceChat has some excellent progress shots of the ride, as well as the stage where the "Avengers Training Initiative" will take place.
