Clear Bag Procedures
Clear Bag Procedures for All ACPSD Athletic Events
Effective beginning the 2022-23 school year, Aiken County Public School
District has adopted a clear bag procedure for all home athletic events.
Spectators will be permitted to carry one clear tote bag not to exceed 12”
x 6” x 12” or a Ziplock style bag no larger than one gallon. A small clutch
purse not to exceed 4.5” x 6.5” may also be carried. Seat cushions are
permitted as long as they are no larger than 16” and do not include arms or
pockets. No diaper bags or camera bags will be allowed.
The District is continually reviewing safety and security procedures.
Utilizing a screening process that includes a clear bag procedure will
enhance safety inside athletic venues and speed the screening process. A
clear bag is quickly and easily searched and greatly reduces faulty bag
searches. It also supports the Department of Homeland Security’s, “If You
See Something, Say Something” campaign.
This proactive measure is part of the District’s efforts to continue to
improve and advance safety and security measures. The clear bag entry
procedure will be in effect for all home sporting events.
A clear bag is not required in order to carry small permissible items such
as keys, wallets, cell phones, credit cards, cash, etc. which should be
carried in a pocket. Prohibited items include weapons, drugs, alcohol,
tobacco, and electronic cigarettes.
If an individual cannot utilize a clear bag due to medical concerns, they
will be required to speak with a designated gate administrator, and the
medical bag will be subject to search. All non-medical items must be
placed in a clear bag in accordance with District guidelines.
