MosquitoCon 28 Updates!
MOSQUITOCON 2021 UPDATE (7/28/21):
We continue to be on track to hold MosquitoCon 29 this coming Saturday, July 31, 2021. We will continue to monitor the situation and will be following state and venue guidelines the day of the show.
A few things to note (everything is subject to change):
– Each entrant may enter UP TO 12 models in total
– Each entrant may enter UP TO 3 models per category (12 max – see above).
– Door are scheduled to open at 9am for CONTEST ENTRANTS ONLY.
– Doors will open at 10am for non-entrants. This means no access to the contest OR vendor rooms for non-entrants until 10am. NO EXCEPTIONS.
Wearing of masks inside the venue continues to be optional. However, as of today (7/28), NJ Governor Murphy and state Health Commissioner Persichilli announced that they “strongly recommend” masking in indoor settings, for both vaccinated and unvaccinated residents, due to increased risk.
We are anticipating that we will be able to a pretty much “normal” show, though we are expecting a big turnout.
Keep checking back here, or on our website, for updates, as everything is subject to change.
Look forward to seeing everyone again!
