SECURITY

The Greenville Police Department has hired “Staff One” to work security at the downtown entrance points. Security staff will be dressed in identifying neon shirts and vests, similar to what one might be used to seeing at East Carolina University sporting events. This will allow for a smooth transition into the downtown area and free up emergency personnel to allow them to respond and be available for true emergency situations and calls for service. Extra police officers will still be stationed in the downtown area and throughout the city.

PROHIBITED ITEMS

For security reasons, no weapons (real or costume), anything that can be used as a weapon, or masks will be permitted in the designated event areas.
