BEFORE THE EVENT

Reduce potential exposures:

All attendees are requested to reduce potential exposure to respiratory diseases for five days before the event. 

• Do not attend crowded indoor parties and gatherings, especially ones that include heavy breathing (raves, etc.).
• Wear a well-fitting high-quality mask (N95 / KN95 or better) when indoors with anyone not in your household. This includes places like stores, workplaces, and public transportation.
• In particular, wear a well-fitting high-quality mask on planes, trains, and buses; in airports; and in your carpool on the way to the event if it includes people not in your household.

Take a COVID test 48 hours before arrival:

• Take a rapid antigen test 48 hours before you arrive at the event (e.g. Wed. evening for Fri. evening arrival) and send us a photo of it.

If you are sick, stay home:

• Please be responsible and cancel if you think you are sick.
• Your full admission price will be refunded if you need to cancel due to infectious illness.
• If you believe you have been exposed to someone with COVID-19, please contact us for guidance.

IF YOU TEST POSITIVE FOR COVID BEFORE THE EVENT:

People testing positive in the week or two before the event will need to test negative for at least two days before arriving at the event. Please contact us ASAP at info@cfnc.us if you have a positive test to discuss your personal situation.

ON ARRIVAL

Take a COVID rapid antigen test:

• People must mask in enclosed spaces with others until their arrival test comes back negative.
• If your arrival test is positive, you’ll be asked to take a second test for confirmation.
• If the second test is positive, you and everyone exposed to you in your carpool will be asked to leave. 
• Thus, we strongly recommend you also test before starting your journey to the event!

Tests at the event are included in your registration fee.

DURING THE EVENT:

After the negative pre-camp tests and the negative on-arrival tests are recorded, there will be no masking or distancing requirements for anyone attending the event, unless they develop respiratory symptoms – people are welcome to mask or distance if they choose.

Take a COVID rapid antigen test on Saturday:

(Updated Sept. 10, 2024) Since there is currently a high prevalence of COVID, we have added a Saturday (Day 2) test to our protocol.  Tests at the event are included in your registration fee.

If the COVID prevalence continues to rise, we may ask people to take additional antigen tests at the event.

At the event, please report any symptoms of illness ASAP to the Health Team. 

If you have respiratory symptoms, we will ask you to take a COVID test.  Also, please mask in indoor spaces unless you are certain that your symptoms are not due to a contagious disease.

If you have gastrointestinal symptoms, we will ask you to avoid the food line – someone will be delegated to bring you food.  Also, please be diligent in washing your hands before touching any public surfaces.

If you need to leave the site and return again during the event, you will need a special protocol. Please contact us ASAP (info@cfnc.us before the event, Health Team during the event) to see what is possible for your situation.

If a person tests positive for COVID at the event, that person will be asked to isolate and everyone at the event will be asked to test. The Health Team will determine and announce other measures for the community, which might include testing, masking, rearranging housing assignments, modifying activities, etc.

If another contagious illness appears at the event, the Health Team may announce measures to contain that illness.

AFTER THE EVENT

After the event, for the two weeks following your departure, please report any symptoms of contagious illness or positive COVID test results to the organizers so we can inform the group and prevent spread in our home communities.
