Ignite Burn

Mandatory COVID-19 Vaccination Announcement 

Vaccination is a vital tool to reduce the presence and severity of COVID-19 cases in the communities and in the nation as a whole. The Transformus Family of Burns (Ignite! and Transformus) has adopted the following policy on mandatory vaccination to safeguard the health of our and surrounding communities. Vaccination is the strongest way we can support the communal effort required to reduce the risks associated with COVID-19. 

COVID-19 Vaccination Policy:

All Transformus, LLC burns, including Ignite!, will require proof that participants of all ages are fully vaccinated against COVID-19. Fully vaccinated is defined as one dose of the J&J vaccine or two doses of the Moderna or Pfizer vaccine. The final dose must be at least fourteen (14) days prior to the event (May 13, 2022).

All participants must present proof of vaccination at the gate before entry. The forms of proof that will be accepted are: 

• vaccination card, 
• digital or hard copy of your vaccination card image, 
• digital vaccination card as supplied by some states, or 
• printouts of your vaccination status from health providers or state databases. 

Be mindful that the gate does not always have cell reception, so bring a printed or locally saved copy. All forms of proof must contain your full legal name, vaccine lot information, and date(s) administered.

If you cannot provide proof, you will be denied entry, no exceptions. Falsifying vaccination status will result in ejection from the event and being permanently banned from future Transformus, LLC events (Ignite! and Transformus). 

By attending Ignite! you are accepting responsibility for all health risks associated with COVID-19.

Medical exemptions may be considered. If you cannot meet these vaccination requirements and believe you have a medical exemption in accordance with CDC guidelines, contact [email protected] for details no later than one month before the date of second round ticket sales (February 28, 2022). Medical exemptions will be extremely rare.

The Board of Directors (BOD), Ignite! Planning Association (IPA), and Transformus Leadership Caucus (TLC) reserve the right to modify this policy at any time.

Additional Considerations:

Currently, vaccinations are available for those aged 5+. We hope this window will expand to those under the age of 5 soon. However, if vaccinations for those participants under 5 are not approved within enough time to be fully vaccinated before the event, admittance will not be allowed. 

We will continue to monitor the latest developments with COVID-19 and follow all local and national guidelines to safely hold our events. Your health and safety is always our greatest concern. We appreciate your understanding and patience as we work through these challenging times. 

Thank you all for your understanding.
