In response to online pressure and media attention, the organizers said they updated their materials to clarify the event was not intended to exclude othre faiths-framing it instead as a modest-dress-only Eid celebration. A park spokesperson also said the event was organized by an outside group renting the space under standard private-event terms, not by the facility itself.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><br \/>\n<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC \"-\/\/W3C\/\/DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional\/\/EN\" \"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/TR\/REC-html40\/loose.dtd\"><br \/>\n<?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><html><body><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>A city-owned water park in Dallas, Texas, received heavy backlash for advertising a \u201cMuslims only\u201d day at the facility and was pressured into backing down after several high-profile figures questioned the move on social media.<\/p>\n<p>The private event, set for June 1, would have closed Epic Waters Indoor Waterpark to non-Muslims, which <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/billionaire-wealth-tax-raises-legal-questions\/\" title=\"Billionaire Wealth Tax Raises Legal Questions\">raises legal questions<\/a>, considering that it gets public funding through a voter-approved sales tax, <a href=\"https:\/\/dallasexpress.com\/metroplex\/are-your-tax-dollars-funding-muslim-only-day-at-epic-waters-waterpark-in-grand-prairie\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">according to<\/a> the Dallas Express.<\/p>\n<p>The 80,000-square-foot park, which has <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/bob-odenkirk-describes-his-little-breakdown-filming-better-call-sauls-final-season\/\" title=\"Bob Odenkirk Describes His \u2018Little Breakdown\u2019 Filming \u2018Better Call Saul\u2019s Final Season\">received rave reviews<\/a> over the past few years, was set to host the \u201c3rd Annual DFW Epic Eid\u201d organized by the East Plano Islamic Center.<\/p>\n<p>After a flyer for the Muslims-only event began circulating on social media, Sarah Gonzales of The Blaze drew attention to it.

Tickets are going for $55 each, or $65 with food included.<\/p>\n<p>Knight spoke with the New York Post and said she never meant to cut anyone out, yet still maintained that there would still be strict criteria for those who want to attend.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe core intention behind this event is to create a space where individuals and families who value modest dress and a modest environment can come together and feel comfortable enjoying a recreational space that often doesn\u2019t naturally accommodate those preferences,\u201d she claimed.<\/p>\n<p>Knight added, \u201cWhile the event is rooted in celebrating Eid within the Muslim community, the guiding principle for attendance is the modest dress code. Guests are expected to follow that guideline; such as burkinis for women and swim trunks with shirts for men.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Knight said the park had rented out the space for private events before, and that this gathering will be no different.<\/p>\n<p>A spokesperson for the water park said the event is \u201cnot hosted or organized\u201d by Epic Waters and that outside groups frequently book private events and dictate the terms.<\/p>\n<p>Knight also issued a statement under the <a href=\"https:\/\/dfwepiceid.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">altered flyer<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cDFW Epic Eid is a privately organized and privately funded event held through a standard rental of Epic Waters, just like many other private gatherings hosted at the park. This event was created to celebrate Eid al-Adha, one of the most important holidays in Islam, which commemorates faith, devotion, and gratitude,\u201d part of her statement read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn response to feedback, we have updated our materials to clearly reflect that this is a modest dress-only event, centered around a respectful and family-friendly environment. So if you are a friend of a different faith who wants to celebrate the Eid holiday with us and adhere to the modest dress code \u2026.\u00a0this event is FOR YOU TOO!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Knight defiantly added, \u201cI will not allow something beautiful and well-intentioned to be turned into something that it is not. I am someone who deeply loves my community, Muslim and Non- Muslim alike. I am an educator, a mother of six, and someone who believes in engaging with perspectives different from my own in order to build deeper understanding and meaningful connection across communities.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis event is, and has always been, about one thing: Love,\u201d she concluded. \u201cTo our community, to lovers of modest fashion and those who are curious about Eid and what modesty at a waterpark can look like: You are welcome. You are safe. This space was created with you in mind.
