***We are a ‘vaxxed-plus‘ event. Masks are still optional (on the dance floor) as we are under the health order exemption list. We encourage you to wear a mask if you feel safer. ***
*If you buy a ticket and can’t come due to a Covid illness or exposure, we do offer a refund (minus processing fees) if requested before 12pm on Tuesday (day of). However, since there is so much uncertainty right now, which is affecting the viability of our events, some of our ticket holders have elected not to receive a refund, and instead to make a donation of their ticket price.

We believe everyone attending should be aware that large gatherings like EBCD are not without risk. Attendance is a choice. Mask-wearing is NOT optional in public settings as of the new Alameda County mask mandate. 6/2/2022. However, we are included in the list of exemptions under HEALTH OFFICER ORDER NO. 22-02: “Participants in indoor recreational sports, gyms, yoga studios, and similar facilities may remove their masks when necessary while actively engaged in periods of heavy exertion, while participating in water-based sports (e.g., swimming, swim lessons, diving, water polo), and while actively engaged in other sports where masks create

· Cases Among the Vaccinated are Generally Mild.
Cases being spread among vaccinated people with normal immune systems are generally very mild, which is why we feel it’s okay to hold the dance. However, even a mild case of covid requires 10 days of isolation, and Covid can be passed to unvaccinated and immunocompromised people with serious consequences. So every attendee at EBCD should evaluate the risks for themselves.
