Under the new policy, all park-goers under the age of 15 must be accompanied by an adult. Those under 17 will need adult chaperones after 3 p.m. Elitch’s leaders wrote in a statement on Saturday afternoon that the policy update was put in place to address unsupervised youths who disrupt the park’s atmosphere.
“Elitch Gardens strives to maintain a fun, family-friendly environment and this policy modification better enables us to continue to do so. The park has experienced some unsupervised and unruly teenagers this summer that can alter this environment.”
