Q: Will I be welcome? I'm 20/I'm 17/I'm 14/I'm 12/I'm 3.


A: We're trying to make Nimbus - 2003 as accessible an event as 
possible to the widest number of fans we can, while remaining 
committed to our focus on adults. For legal reasons, we cannot accept 
registrations from minors (i.e., people under 18) unless they have a 
parent, legal guardian or authorised adult chaperone present. People 
under 18 must travel with a parent, legal guardian or authorised 
adult chaperone, who must either remain within the hotel area or 
leave a cellular/mobile telephone contact in case of emergency. We 
may also ask parents to sign and send us additional permission forms 
once the formal programming is determined.

Ages 14-17: must be accompanied to the Symposium by a parent, legal 
guardian or an authorised adult chaperone (such as a schoolteacher) 
(i.e., not another HP fan who happens to be going, unless they're 
your parent or person acting in loco parentis). Nimbus is an adult 
conference and parents should be advised that some programming may 
contain adult themes and language. If the minor will be accompanied 
by a chaperone other than a parent or legal guardian, the parent or 
legal guardian must provide signed and notarized written consent. Any 
minors arriving with a chaperone but without a notarized and signed 
consent form will not be admitted.



We're looking in to what happened with the helpdesk form.
