Park Accessibility Guide ELITCH GARDENS PARK ACCESSIBILITY GUIDE Park Accessibility Guide ELITCH GARDENS PARK ACCESSIBILITY GUIDE WELCOME TO ELITCH GARDENS We’re glad you’re here! This guide provides an overview of services and facilities available for Guests with disabilities who are visiting Elitch Gardens. We are committed to providing a safe and enjoyable environment for all Guests. This guide is intended to supplement the Elitch Gardens Park Map and Guide, which contains additional park information and an entertainment schedule. This guide also lists all of the rides, shows, and Guest assistance areas and includes symbols that will help you find these areas on the park map. Many theme park rides incorporate safety systems designed by the manufacturer to accommodate people of average physical stature and body proportion. These systems may place restrictions on the ability of an individual to safely experience the ride. Guests of exceptional proportions, Guests who have or have had health concerns with their heart, back or neck, expectant mothers, people who have had recent surgery, people with casts, braces, or restrictive devices, may not be safely accommodated by these systems. For example, height requirements are based on the size needed for restraint devices to function properly and the level of developmental maturity usually associated with a certain height. Elitch Garden’s Ride Admission Policy has been developed based on the recommendations of the manufacturer, our past experience and our evaluation of each ride using our knowledge of the ride in both normal and emergency operating conditions. Our prime consideration is the ability of each person to endure the dynamics of a ride without risk of injury to that person or other riders. Guests who feel affected by this policy are encouraged to visit any Guest Relations Office to obtain a list of the rides they can safely ride. The Ride Admission Policy list will provide information for our ride attendants to help accommodate you. NOTICE: The information in this guide is subject to change. Please feel free to contact a Team Member regarding accessibility prior to boarding a particular ride. You may also visit Guest Relations for current information on accessibility and services. 2 ELITCH GARDENS PARK ACCESSIBILITY GUIDE Index of Contents Welcome to ELITCH GARDENS ............................................................ 2 Index of Contents................................................................................ 3 Accessible Parking ............................................................................. 5 Accessible Entrance ........................................................................... 5 Special Dietary Needs ........................................................................ 5 Guest Relations .................................................................................. 5 Wheelchair & Stroller Rental ............................................................... 5 First Aid .............................................................................................. 5 Gift Shops ........................................................................................... 6 Package Pick-up ................................................................................. 6 Restrooms .......................................................................................... 6 Dining ................................................................................................. 6 Hearing Impairment Accommodations ................................................ 6 Assistance Animals ............................................................................. 6 Oxygen Tanks .................................................................................... 8 Show Arena Access Information ......................................................... 9 Big Wheel Stage ............................................................................. 9 Elitch Arena ..................................................................................... 9 KiddieLand Stage ............................................................................ 9 Trocadero Theater .......................................................................... 9 Ride Access Information ................................................................... 11 General Information ...................................................................... 11 Guests of Exceptional Size ............................................................... 12 Height Requirements ........................................................................ 12 Loose Articles ................................................................................... 12 On Ride Camera Policy .................................................................... 13 Safety Signage ................................................................................. 13 Before You Ride ............................................................................... 14 Definitions ......................................................................................... 14 Supervising Companion ................................................................ 14 Accompanied By ........................................................................... 15 Hand-held Infant............................................................................ 15 Functioning Extremity .................................................................... 15 Ability to hold on or brace .............................................................. 15 Participation Criteria ......................................................................... 15 RIDES AND ATTRACTIONS ..........

  • Idioms-And-Expressions.Pdf
    Idioms and Expressions by David Holmes A method for learning and remembering idioms and expressions I wrote this model as a teaching device during the time I was working in Bangkok, Thai- land, as a legal editor and language consultant, with one of the Big Four Legal and Tax companies, KPMG (during my afternoon job) after teaching at the university. When I had no legal documents to edit and no individual advising to do (which was quite frequently) I would sit at my desk, (like some old character out of a Charles Dickens’ novel) and prepare language materials to be used for helping professionals who had learned English as a second language—for even up to fifteen years in school—but who were still unable to follow a movie in English, understand the World News on TV, or converse in a colloquial style, because they’d never had a chance to hear and learn com- mon, everyday expressions such as, “It’s a done deal!” or “Drop whatever you’re doing.” Because misunderstandings of such idioms and expressions frequently caused miscom- munication between our management teams and foreign clients, I was asked to try to as- sist. I am happy to be able to share the materials that follow, such as they are, in the hope that they may be of some use and benefit to others. The simple teaching device I used was three-fold: 1. Make a note of an idiom/expression 2. Define and explain it in understandable words (including synonyms.) 3. Give at least three sample sentences to illustrate how the expression is used in context.
