Many facilities and corporations are taking great measures to ensure all guests and visitors feel welcome including those with autism and other cognitive differences. For example, Walmart offers special sensory-friendly shopping hours where lights are dimmed and music is softened and AMC Theatres who provide sensory-friendly moving showings.

A day at the waterpark can be especially overstimulating, that why the folks at Soaring Eagle Waterpark and Hotel take great pride in their Certified Autism Center designation which has once again been renewed.

In a press release Myron Pincomb, chairman of the International Board of Credentialing and Continuing Education Standards (IBCCES) says,

We are thrilled to continue our partnership with Soaring Eagle Waterpark and Hotel and renew their designation as a certified autism center...This renewal proves their ongoing dedication to creating a safe, inclusive, and welcoming environment for every guest that visits the waterpark.
