Dress Code
The dress code for the event is business casual. And because meeting rooms can be chilly, a light sweater is also a great idea.
Health and Safety Tips
The health and safety of all our guests and participants is our number one goal. Please see below for important details which will continue to be updated based on our unique needs and review the COVID-19 Waiver. If you are feeling sick or have been recently exposed to someone who recently tested positive for COVID-19, you should stay home. People who have underlying health conditions or taking medications that weaken the immune system, should talk to their healthcare provider before attending large gatherings.
RECOGNIZE COVID-19 SYMPTOMS
The CDC has identified the symptoms of a COVID-19 infection. If you have one or more of these symptoms on the day of the event, please stay home. If you are waiting for COVID-19 test results or have had close contact with a person who has tested positive for or who has COVID-19 symptoms, please stay home unless you get a negative test result before the event.
YOUR SAFETY IS OUR NUMBER ONE PRIORITY
The COVID-19 virus and its variants are highly contagious. Some people infected with these viruses get severely ill, become hospitalized or die. Event attendees acknowledge the risk of exposure to the COVID-19 virus, assume all such risk, and the American Cancer Society, Inc., shall not be held liable.
PROTECT OUR COMMUNITY
Help protect our community. It is strongly encouraged that individual attendees are vaccinated. The wearing of face masks at the event will follow local guidelines. Please report to your staff partner if you later contract COVID-19 and believe you could have received or spread the virus at the event.
