Updated 07/11/2020 We are having a festival! To our valued festival attendees: We cannot guarantee anyone’s safety from any virus or sickness during a visit to Pickin' in Parsons or Five River Campground. This means you accept this risk for yourself. If you have medical vulnerabilities or are considered at high risk, please do not come. Governor Jim Justice has made masks mandatory while inside and where social distancing is not possible. We ask that you follow these guidelines. We have heard from some of you who can't wear masks due to health reasons, and we understand. Please send others (who can wear a mask) into our community for supplies. In light of recent events and protocol, we are modifying our festival to give you the most options for this outdoor event. We will continue to take the necessary steps to ensure that we can keep you as safe as possible and informed every step of the way. At the gate you will submit to a temperature check. You will receive an armband, program and an individually wrapped face mask. A few things we are doing to cultivate social distancing.
If you want to be under the pavilion, please be aware that we can not offer social distancing in this area. You will be entering at your own risk. You may only sit in your chair. We ask that you only have one chair per guest. and no chair hopping this year. We ask that you use hand sanitizer before entering and we ask you to wear a mask, which will be provided. For Pickin' in Parsons guests wishing to modify their reservation, we have updated our policies to allow flexibility. We are now offering to exchange this years tickets for the 2021 festival. If you have purchased a full service campsite for festival and do not feel this is the place for you this year, we will happily roll your reservation over to next year. Due to Covid-19 we are offering these exchanges up to and including date of your arrival. Please stay home if you feeling sick. |
