The dance's Covid agreement is unchanged from prior months.
By attending this dance, you agree to the following:

(3) If I had Covid-19 in the 14 days before the dance, I will have a negative test result before attending (after my 5-day minimum isolation period has ended and all symptoms are gone).
(4) If I had close contact with someone with Covid-19 in the 14 days before the dance, I will receive a negative rapid test result on the day of the dance before attending.
(5) If I know or suspect someone in my household has Covid-19, I will not attend.
