FetchNW Presents Barktober 2021

WE'VE BEEN IN QUARANTINE FOR WAY TOO LONG AND IT'S TIME TO GET BACK ON THE BOAT!!  

The fluffiest, squeakiest, most boatiest (totally a word) boat cruise in Seattle! Come back to The Hiyu, a BIG friggin fomer Seattle ferry boat. Be fluffy. Wag. Bark, squeak, and yowl. Do an awoo or a le squeak. Dance and stomp your paws. Local community DJs will be playing tunes all night. The Hiyu gives us a big outdoor deck with a beer and cider cart, two indoor bar lounges, a full sound system, lighting, and a food truck on the deck! Our changing space was a hit in the before-Covid days and it's coming back too. Hang on the deck, chill by the bar, grab some food and drink and dance the night away. We talk about this event all year. Don't miss it!! Grab a ticket, your fursuits, hoods, your friends, and come to have fun. More info on the venue: On the HIYU.

BUT WHAT ABOUT THE CORONAVIRUS?? - If we are unable to hold this event, all ticket sales and DJ bookings will immediately be transferred to the date/time this event is rescheduled for. You won't have to do anything to transfer your ticket to the new date. We'll do that for you and we'll blast out announcements when/if this happens. By buying a ticket, you are guaranteeing your spot on this boat, whenever it happens. Any questions, please ask.

WHAT ABOUT VACCINATIONS? - You must be fully vaccinated against Covid-19 to attend FetchNW Presents Barktober 2021. Failure to provide proof of vaccination will mean you will not be admitted to the event and you will not receive a refund.

Proof of vaccination consists of your CDC COVID-19 Vaccination Record Cards, a WA State Certificate of COVID-19 Vaccination (from MyIRmobile.com), or a WA State Immunization Information System printout. We will accept printed or digital versions of these documents. For those joining us internationally, equivalent documentation from your home country will also be accepted.

Following the CDC definition, you are fully vaccinated:

• 2 weeks after your second dose of any combination of WHO-approved vaccines that require 2 doses, including but not limited to Pfizer, Moderna, or Oxford/AstraZeneca; or
• 2 weeks after a single-dose vaccine, such as Johnson & Johnson's Janssen vaccine.

If you are not or cannot be fully vaccinated, we'd love to see you in the future when it's safer.

Making, causing to be made, or using false or misleading documents or claims regarding one's vaccination status is a violation of our Code of Conduct. Because of the unique and elevated risk that this poses to public safety, anyone found to be attempting to circumvent this policy may receive a lifetime ban from FetchNW events as well as referral to the appropriate authorities.
