	PACK LIGHTLY It's best to limit the number of items you take into the Park. Park ride operators/rides cannot accommodate strollers, cameras, camcorders, purses, sunglasses or bulky items. You are encouraged to leave these with a non-riding friend, or bring along a "fanny pack."

	REMEMBER WHERE YOU PARK There are 5,000 parking spaces in the Carowinds lot. Once you park, take note of the row number on the fence at the edge of the lot. This will help you find your car at the end of the day. If you have trouble locating your car, Security can provide assistance.
