Disney Screening
NORTHRIDGE, CA - Some of the nation’s most popular
themes parks, including Disneyland in Anaheim, CA and
Walt Disney World in Orlando, FL, have added metal
detectors to their entrances for enhanced security. These
theme parks are among the most popular destinations in
the country and attract millions annually. Holidays and
school breaks especially bump up the attendance at
the theme parks, and due to recently heightened public
safety concerns, additional security measures are being
applied as appropriate. CSC Orange County and Orlando
personnel are working onsite to assist with the wanding
and walk-through metal detector screenings for guests
entering the Disney parks. CSC is proud to partner with
The Walt Disney Company in implementing additional
security measures to both Disneyland and Disney World.
