<<Disclaimer: Verify this information before applying it to your situation.>> Thanks to all who responded! My daughter just ate what she brought with her--the day was rainy and cold--she was soaked when she returned and her food was not in danger of spoiling that day! The school cleared it with the park to allow her cooler in the park and to be placed in a locker. Also, a great suggestion came in after she went--a member suggested she could keep the food in a refridgerator in the first aid station, especially good for summer months. If I have this situation again, I am going to look into that! Here are my responses!: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ Hi...I went into the archives for my granddaughter whose class trip will be to Great Adventure. One source said only the Sabrette hot dogs are GF (no bun of course). However, there is a McDonalds and a Burger King just outside and that was where this family ate. I don't know if your daughter would have the option of doing that. I will be interested to see if you get additional information from the list. Hope your daughter has a good time...and yes, it's so difficult for the kids to feel different. Carol ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ have never been there, but is there are any stands that sell just fries, she should be able to have those. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ Hi, My daughter was invited to go with a group for a birthday party at Six Flags recently. I went along. First, call right now and get the name of the Food Services Manager. Talk to him or her and get permission to bring in outside food. Sometimes they do a very thorough search of your bags at the entrance, and they don't like outside food coming in. It helps a lot to have the name and say you have permission. Then, there should be at least a few things to eat for her. Popsicles, lemonade, maybe snow cone sort of things, maybe a Ben and Jerry's stand-of course, you would ask for a freshly opened container of a safe flavor and watch them wash the scooper. Most or all of the fries will NOT be in a dedicated fryer. You might be able to get plain popcorn. Some of the sodas will be on the gf list. The food manager at our area's Six Flags was nice, but clueless. He gave me wrong information. Your daughter is older, so she will probably recognize something safe. Is she well trained in reading the labels herself and knowing what is suspicious? It also depends if they have all of the stands open yet, early in the season. We really needed our own food that we brought. Good luck. Let us know how it goes. ___________________________________________________________________________ Call Six Flags. They have a website that you can google. You can get the phone number and ask them for information. I hope the rain clears out so she has a nice day. I live near Six Flags, although I haven't been there in many years, so I can't help, but I know they have a user-friendly customer service. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ there is a place that makes butterfly fries and regular fries, natural cut fries. they are the only two things made there, I feed those to my son. It's located opposite Nathan's hotdogs, in that section, I just can't recall the name. Hope it's not too later. Also, at the chinese restaurant I get him white rice. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ I cant help with places to eat or anything --- but the last time I went to Great Adventure, nearly 2 yrs ago, I was not permitted to bring in a cooler....I left it in the car, and we went out for me to eat, then just did re-entry. Hopefully, because she is with the school, they will allow it. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ ------------------------------------------------------ * Visit the Celiac Web Page at www.enabling.org/ia/celiac/index.html *
