Kennywood Strengthens Youth Chaperone Policy This Weekend

PITTSBURGH, PA —If you are under 18 and seeking admission alone into Kennywood on Saturday, you're out of luck.

The West Mifflin amusement park announced on Friday that it is expanding its chaperone policy this weekend. The park usually begins requiring minors to have an adult chaperone after 4 p.m., but that will change on Saturday.

"We are aware of social media posts circulating regarding a possible unauthorized gathering at the park," park officials stated in a social media post.

"We have zero tolerance for disruptive behavior and, out of an abundance of caution, will be expanding our evening chaperone policy to be in effect all day, Saturday, June 6."
