The following are the program policies and procedures:

1. All guests under the age of 18 must always be accompanied by a parent or supervising adult age 21 or older on Fridays and Saturdays after 4:00 PM. We encourage persons under the age of 18 to enjoy the mall with a parent or supervising adult on Friday and Saturday evenings.
2. Unsupervised youth, under the age of 18, shopping prior to 4:00 PM on Friday and Saturday evenings must leave the mall by 4:00 PM or be joined with a parent or supervising adult age 21 or older.
3. Unaccompanied minors using public transportation, or relying on other forms of provided transportation, must schedule their departure time to ensure compliance with Youth Chaperone Program.
4. Proof of age will be required for the youth and the supervising adults. Those who fail to produce proper identification will be asked to leave the property.
5. Proper identification includes a state issued driver’s license or ID card, resident alien card, a passport, or a military ID. The identification must include a photograph, date of birth, and be tamper proof.
6. One adult may accompany up to four youth. The supervising adult must remain with the youth at all times.
7. Supervising adults are responsible for the actions of the youth they accompany and must ensure they are following Parkway Plaza’s Code of Conduct.

Mall employees under the age of 18 may continue to work in their store during youth chaperone policy hours. Persons under the age of 18 must adhere to the Youth Chaperone Policy if their shift ends during policy hours. Employees of the mall must be prepared to show valid ID and proof of employment.

A waiting area will be available for unescorted minors (under 18) that have no transportation off the property. Once there, they will be directed to contact their parent or guardian to arrange their ride. The pick-up/waiting area is located at the Five Below/Ulta Entrance.

Please note: The Youth Chaperone Program can be implemented at management’s discretion at any other day and time when it is deemed appropriate or necessary by management, security and/or local authorities. Please contact the management office for additional information.
