Important Registration Details
Please read the following carefully because we want each of you to attend the 2027 Finding Our Way Home (FOWH)!
COVID-19 Guidelines for all UUA In-Person Events – revised March 2023
- Vaccinations: Onsite attendees are required to be vaccinated and boosted, if eligible.
- Masks: Masks are required in our indoor meeting spaces except when eating or drinking. Weather permitting, we will share our meals outdoors. Attendees are encouraged to bring their own masks. A limited number of N95 or KN95 masks will be available.
- Testing: Testing before you travel is required. We will have rapid antigen tests on-site at our event in the instance someone starts to feel unwell while attending. Event organizers will have a handful of rapid tests on hand at the event, purchased by the individual event organizers. If someone tests positive at an event, they should notify the event organizers immediately.
- Medical Exemptions: We require documentation from your physician indicating the medical reasons for the exemption. On the advice of your physician, an exemption may be granted when it does not cause undue hardship or pose a direct threat to the health and safety of others. Additionally, participants requiring exemptions must show proof of a negative COVID-19 test within 72 hours (about 3 days) before the event. Testing must be completed at a licensed medical center. Note that home tests are not acceptable. Testing will be at the participant’s own cost and may be covered under health insurance.
- COVID-19 Precautions Acknowledgement: I understand that travel and gathering involve risk of sickness, including sickness from COVID-19. I (and on behalf of my minor guest(s)) waive and release the UUA, its board, sponsors and exhibitors, employees, and agents, from and against claims, liabilities and expenses arising from injury, sickness or death from contraction or spread of COVID-19 or other communicable disease due to travel to or attendance at an event sponsored by the UUA. I will take necessary precautions while at the event, including, but not limited to, engaging in appropriate social distancing, wearing a mask when requested and/or required, minimizing face touching, frequently washing hands, and avoiding risky environments such as overcrowded rooms. I agree to remove myself from all event gatherings if I feel ill or have exposure to a COVID-19 case. I understand that I am financially responsible for all expenses should I overstay my departure date, under the direction of a medical professional, due to COVID-19. This waiver and release are binding on me and my heirs and successors.
