at-con badge pickup questions

[Hakiro]

So I'm gonna go for 1 day. I go to the main doors and wait in line. When I'm at the front and ask for a 1-day ticket, what do I need/do besides money? I'm 15 years old. Do I need gov ID for under 18 + at-con registration?

[Kyra_Maverick]

Yes, you will need a valid government ID, be that Drivers License, State ID or Passport.

Actually, as per the FAQ, you only need ID if you are not paying cash

[Kyra_Maverick]

Really? I didn't see that in there anywhere. Only exception I saw was if you are under 18 and with a con registered guardian.

look under the At-Con registration section

At-Con Registration

Q: What is At-Con Registration?

A: At-Con badges range from Full Weekend to one-day badges. They are not laminated and memberships can only be purchased at FanimeCon, hence the phrase "at-con."

Q: When/Where do I go to purchase my membership for At-Con Registration?
A: You can purchase your membership starting on Friday. You can purchase them at the line to the right of the Pre-Registration lines during our hours.

Q: Is this the only time I can purchase one-day memberships?

A: Yes.

Q: If I buy a one-day membership but I want to come back for more days, what should I do?
A: During the convention, please come to Registration and let staff know that you want to upgrade your badge.

Q: Are kids 10 and under free?
A: Yes, kids 10 and under are free. However, you would need to register them at-con to get their child badge.

Not here. But that wasn't the issue. It's nice to know that minors have a work around for not having ID.

It is the case for now, however, abuse may quickly lead to a policy change

wondering. if i brought my boyfriends school id, my school id, and a picture of the 2 of us together... would i be able 2 pick up his badge for him? what if i had a note from him saying i could?
unfortunately we forgot to sign up as a group

[ewu]

no you will not. Absolutely no one can register and pick up the badge except for the person on the account.

What will we do if someone registered you and then you come later and we released your badge already? Registration does not have the resources nor the time to address issues that will spawn from such exceptions.

Is it possible to use my permit to get my badge with my school ID?

[chris-barstow]

I used my school ID last 3 years and never got any trouble, but the permit and ID would work if they changed (if its good enough for the cops it should work for staff)

[mattduy]

Ok. Thanks for the info  ;)
