Hey guys, looking for some advice here. I live in PA. I'm taking my wife and two kids to an amusement park called Knoebels, and I'm wondering if I should carry concealed or not. I'm considering a few things: 1. Six flags and other amusement parks have security checkpoints and metal detectors at the entrance, as far as I can tell Knoebels does not. Knoebels may check your bags, however. I would like to carry in my fanny pack so I can take it off for rides, but if they're checking bags, I'd rather carry appendix. I struggled to find any info online about whether firearms are prohibited on the property, but when I eventually asked the chat bot on the website, it did say "Firearms, including concealed carry weapons (CCW), are not permitted on Knoebels property, including the campground. This policy is in place to ensure the safety and comfort of all guests."

So, is this one of those places (like Costco) where I carry anyway and nobody will ever know, but if I ever have to use it, I'll be glad I had it? Or do I respect the rules and leave my gun in my truck. Thanks!!

Just my opinion but if your plan is to carry it in a fanny pack and take it off for rides than you are at that point not in control of your firearms. Someone else is though. For this reason alone I’d say not to carry it. Unless you can have it on your person at all times. I’d say trust in the Lord and have fun with your family. Maybe throw some pepper gel in your pocket.

Thanks for the advice, Matthew, I see your point and agree I don't want anyone else to be in control of my firearm. I will have my POM spray with me for sure! And, always trusting in the Lord is #1. God bless and happy 4th!

I will still consider carrying appendix all day - just wondering if I'll be able to on rides. It can be tricky when the bars are slammed down against your torso and crushing your insides. Hmm. Maybe I will give it at try and update this thread if successful!
