Please confirm your plans with them, not the park. We require 1 adult chaperone per 10 children and they will be given complimentary passes from the park. We will create the groups schedule for you so you know who needs to be where and when. Group leaders need to make it very clear that all of the wildlife here is real - do not attempt to feed them, have your picture taken near them, or harass them in any way. Alligators can be especially fast and extremely dangerous if you do not respect their home.
