Children
All children must be registered with the convention,
and all children purchasing memberships must be accompanied by an adult.
Children ages 5 and under are admitted to the
convention without charge and will receive a hospital-type ID bracelet.
They must be under the supervision of an adult, or in the official child
care area, at all times. If a young child is found unattended, he or she
will be delivered to the child care area and the responsible adult(s) will
be billed.
Children ages 6 through 12 are admitted at half the
adult price and may operate independently as long as they cause no
problems. Those not capable of operating responsibly on their own must be
kept under adult supervision or taken to the official child care area.
All children of ages 12 or under must be under direct
adult supervision after 8:00 pm. Children may work as convention
volunteers, but those under age 12 may do so for no more than 4 hours per
day. Those of ages 12 through 16 may do so for no more than 6 hours per
day.
Smoking
Except for the smoking section of the Hospitality suite and any
designated smoking areas in the hotel restaurants and bars, smoking is not
permitted in any indoor public area at OryCon
Weapons
The wearing and carrying of weapons (or anything that
looks like a weapon) will not be permitted, except as part of a Masquerade
contestant’s costume, or as part of other designated events, and then
only during the event, or in transit to and from the event. The use of a
weapon as part of the Masquerade must be approved by the Masquerade
Director prior to the event. Failure to comply is grounds for immediate
expulsion from the convention.
Any weapons purchased in the Dealers’ Room must be
securely wrapped.
"Weapons" includes (but is not limited to):
guns, blasters, swords, knives, spitwads, flame throwers, nuclear or
non-nuclear explosives, squirt guns, whips, slingshots, peashooters, or
unpleasant-looking devices. (The committee reserves the right to define
what constitutes a weapon.) Keep them in your room. Period.. |
