Food and drink and some entertainment venues are extra. Also like most theme parks, entrance fees, souvenirs, food and drink can be very expensive. Tickets for $30 each, but valid only for use on Thursdays. Bring snacks and a drinking cup to use in the park. Find or buy re-fillable soda cups for the park.

When you can reuse or re-purpose an item, you are not only saving it from the landfills, but you are also saving the expense and energy which would have been expended when you recycle. I cut a heavy blue plastic trash bag into triangles, stapled them over a rope and hung the rope across the driveway to block those drivers from using it.
