Security Precautions
The Big Spring Jam has been a safe and secure event for many years. The Huntsville Police and the Von Braun Center both have excellent track records and have always worked well together to ensure the safety of Jam attendees and participants.
Please keep the following in mind when heading out to the Jam:
- If you come in with a purse, backpack or camera bag - the bag will be inspected
- If you are wearing any type of bulky clothing - you will be asked to be patted down
- If you are carrying a portable chair in a bag - the bag will be inspected
We appreciate your cooperation and are sure that you realize we are conducting these measures for one reason - to maximize safety to assure everyone has a good time at the Jam.
