Policies at Carolina Classic Fair
I find that continuation of this policy will deter less and less families with babies/toddlers from coming to the fair in the future. As a father, I find it absolutely ridiculous that a diaper bag is NOT allowed as well as no cooler policy which includes breastmilk in a small lunchbox is NOT allowed either. Going further, I can understand not bringing a typical sized cooler, but a small lunchbox is pushing it to the extreme. At the gates, there are metal detectors and you have to empty out your pockets before entry. Additionally, there are multiple police including antigang units patrolling on foot. Lastly, I do not need my daughter's bag exposed for everyone to see. We value privacy.
When word continues to get around about these policies, I think it would disincentivise families with little children from going to the fair next year and beyond. They need to reconsider this or come up with a better family friendly policy or little children rides and event shows might be low attendance.
Please share your thoughts.
