In order to help reduce the contact between staff and patrons upon entry, Tony’s Pizza Events Center is implementing a Clear Bag Policy effective April 1, 2021. The new policy will allow for a speedier entry process, improve security and limit the need for staff to handle a patron’s belongings.
“We want all of our patrons to have a safe and enjoyable experience at Tony’s Pizza Events Center,” said Susan Trafton, General Manager. “Our team has worked together with the City of Salina and Saline County to put together a comprehensive plan to enhance the health and safety of every person who visits the facility.”
Beginning April 1st, approved bags will include clear tote bags up to 12” x 12” x 6”, one-gallon plastic freezer bags, or small purses or clutches not to exceed 8.5” x 5.5”. Patrons whose bags exceed these dimensions will be asked to return belongings to their vehicles. Along with large bags, prohibited items include, but are not limited to:
- Alcoholic beverages or controlled substances (unless prescribed for the possessor)
- Professional cameras, audio or visual recording equipment, radios, televisions or any other such electronic devices, except when authorized.
- Tri-pods
- Pets (Excluding Service Animals)
- Bottles, either plastic or glass
- Shopping carts
- Strollers or diaper bags
- Cans or coolers
- Outside food or beverage
- Fireworks
- Weapons and dangerous devices of any type
- Items which may be used as a weapon or projectile.
In addition to the new clear bag policy, staff has installed touchless faucets and paper towel dispensers in all restrooms (self-flushing toilets were previously installed), automatic hand sanitizer stations, touch-free temperature scanners, as well as upgraded HVAC filtration and developed event floor plans that allow for social distancing.
