New COVID Policy for SNAFU Con 2021
Dear con-goers,
We here at SNAFU Con are excitedly working towards our convention Halloween weekend, but in the face of COVID's Delta variant and new state restrictions, we are going to have some new requirements. The health and safety of our attendees and staff has always been of great importance to us, so we've found the safest manner to still hold the con.
All attendees must have proof of full vaccination in order to pick up a badge. Exceptions must be applied for, but will still require a negative test within two days of the convention. Children under the age of 13 are exempted from vaccination but will still require a negative test. Masks are required while at the venue and during all parts of the convention.
Click here for our full COVID-19 guidelines and policy changes.
If these circumstances are too much to properly enjoy the convention, we apologize but given the current health risks at large there is little that can be done about it this year. We're happy to roll over any tickets that won't be used towards next year's event, where we hope to have a more traditional gathering.
In the mean time, stay safe, and we hope to see you soon!
