Sept 02, 2010: I was recently made aware of an attraction at Carowind's Theme Park that is to take place during the "Scarowinds" event. The attraction is called “The Asylum”. Being closely tied to someone suffering with mental illness and an advocate for the mentally ill, I am deeply offended by this attraction which will serve to perpetuate ignorance and indifference to those suffering with debilitating medical issues.

I encourage others to contact Cedar Fair Entertainment, the parent company of Carowinds to do away with this egregious attraction of insensitivity.
