A few years ago I was at a Chuck E Cheese in Lansing,MI. As I was leaving I saw that they had beer and wine on their menu.I have since moved and now live in Menasha,Wi. I was going to have my daughter's ninth birthday there and found out they serve it at the Chuck E Cheese here in Appleton,Wi. I as a parent feel this is wrong and have and will continue to do something until they remove it from their menus. This is a place for kids to be a kid and shouldn't have it at a place geared towards them. I understand that children go to other places that serve alcohol, but they are not geared just for them.I have wrote to my State Representatives and Senators and they have told me that they can't help, but sent information for me to get it. I have also wrote major newspapers and news shows. I have contacted MADD and they will help us out the best they can. I need every parent and concerned citizin to sign this petiton so our kids can have a safe place to play. What does it take for some action. A person under the influence to hurt a child leaving from there. Our childrens safety should not be sacrificed for corporate greed. This is what Chuck E Cheese says on their website,
Chuck E. Cheese's was founded by Nolan Bushnell (founder of Atari & Pong), in May 1977. The first Chuck E. Cheese's was located on Winchester Boulevard, in San Jose, California. The concept for Chuck E. Cheese's evolved from Mr. Bushnell's belief that there were not enough places where young people could go to play video games that had a family atmosphere.
In 1984 the parent company to Chuck E. Cheese's, Pizza Time Theatre Inc. was purchased by their direct competitor at the time Showbiz Pizza. A few years later it was decided to change the target audience to focus specifically on families with young kids. Both the Chuck E. Cheese's and ShowBiz names continued to be used until 1992, when Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza became the name for all of the restaurants.
Today, our mission is simple, bring families together in a wholesome environment for fun, games and kids. Chuck E. Cheese's consists of over 500 entertainment centers in 48 states and 5 countries.
CEC Entertainment, Inc. is headquartered in Irving, Texas, and trades on the New York Stock Exchange using the ticker symbol (CEC). It's fr kids,parents and families to have fun. Thank you for signing my petition.
