Code of Conduct

Some important rules for all attendees to follow

This Code of Conduct applies to all attendees and organizers of FelCon.

COVID-19 Precautions

All attendees must be fully vaccinated against COVID-19 with the maximum number of available doses at least 2 weeks prior to October 8th, 2021.
Due to the recent rise in COVID-19 cases since the announcement of FelCon, we are requiring a negative COVID test no more than 3 days prior to travel. COVID tests can be taken for free at many locations, including the following:
If for any reason you are unable to meet this testing requirement, please contact a FelCon organizer (Felicity, Arctyc, TC) at your earliest convenience.
Follow the mask requirements of any venue that we attend during FelCon. We highly encourage mask wearing even if it is not required by a particular venue.

Expected Behavior

Respect all attendees and organizers.
Many events will be shared with members of the public not attending FelCon. Please be respectful of these people, as well as the staff of any venues you attend.
Be aware of your surroundings and look out for each other. If you see something, say something.
Obey the local and federal laws of Tampa, Florida and the United States.
