2025 Fred Barakat Annual Sports Council Dinner

For safety and efficiency, we recommend entering without a bag. If necessary, guests are permitted to bring in one small bag that meets the following guidelines.

Permitted Bags

• Clear Bags: Clear vinyl or plastic bags, one-gallon Ziploc-style storage bags, and clear vinyl or plastic backpacks, measuring no larger than 12” x 6” x 12”.
• Small Clutch Bags: Small bags up to 4.5” x 6.5” (approximately the size of a hand), with or without a handle or strap, do not have to be clear.
• Medical Bags: Medical bags, including diaper bags when accompanied by a child, will be inspected before entry.

Greensboro Complex personnel reserve the right to deny entry to any bag or item that is deemed unsafe for admission. Guests who do not follow building policies or decline to be inspected may be denied entry or required to leave the venue. Greensboro Complex does not provide a bag check or lockers for bags. All bags left in lobbies will be discarded.
