COVID-19 Safety Policy

  1. The health and safety of all Chessiecon members, staff, and hotel staff is Chessiecon’s first priority. To that end Chessiecon will require all members, vendors and staff to be fully vaccinated at the convention.
  2. Chessiecon will follow or exceed all State and Local rules and regulations, and all hotel policies for indoor activities in effect for the duration of the convention.
  3. In addition, all members, vendors, and staff shall at all times wear a mask that covers both nose and mouth, except while eating or drinking, or if wearing an opaque mask, for brief periods necessary for communication to the hearing-impaired.
  4. Members shall present proof of vaccination at check-in, such proof consisting of:
    1. Vaccination Record: a physical vaccine card, a physical copy of said card, or an electronic copy of said vaccine card, or a vaccine QR code as an acceptable form of vax proof; and
    2. ID: proof of identity matching the name of the person on the card (For minors, word of parent or guardian is considered proof of identity.)
  5. Due to the above requirements, we ask that children who are not eligible for the vaccine not attend the convention.
  6. In the event that a member has already paid for a membership, and is unable or unwilling to comply with this policy, TSFS will refund the member’s payment. At the option of the member, the membership may be rolled over to Chessiecon 2023.
