2021 Arizona Conference — COVID

COVID Protocol Statement

The Saint Kosmas Conference administration cares about the health and safety of all our conference staff and attendees. We have taken the following measures to be able to observe all COVID protocols that may be required at the time of the 2021 Saint Kosmas Conference in April to comply with the laws of the state of Arizona, the COVID regulations of Pinal County, and the directives of the Orthodox Church.

1) We have secured over 10,000 square feet of indoor meeting room space at the Gold Canyon Golf Resort and approximately the same amount of outdoor meeting space as well. This amount of space will easily allow us to accommodate social distancing protocols if required at the time of our conference. We will be utilizing the following venues at the Gold Canyon Golf Resort: Kiva Board Room, Kachina Room, Geronimo Room, Towne Hall Square Complex, The Ballroom, Towne Hall Pavilion, and Upper Towne Hall, as well as surrounding lawn areas. Visit the Gold Canyon Golf Resort's "Venue Location" page to learn more about these spacious venues being utilized for the 2021 Saint Kosmas Arizona Conference.

2) We have arranged for all meals to be served in individual boxed containers and served outdoors. Outdoor dining will take place in the Towne Hall Pavilion and the lawn areas of the Towne Hall Square complex. This will allow us to follow the strictest food service protocols if required, and will also be very practical for families with children. To view the outdoor dining locations, visit the resort’s "Venue Location" page.

Gold Canyon Golf Resort is also taking appropriate measures to ensure the health and safety of their guests. To view the resort's COVID policies, visit their "COVID19" page.

COVID Cancellation Policy

If government regulations related to COVID force a cancellation of the 2021 Saint Kosmas Conference, (OR if the 2021 Saint Kosmas Conference is cancelled for any reason), all registration payments will be refunded in full automatically, guaranteed. Based on the history of the Arizona governor's response to COVID during 2020, we do not anticipate this happening. Gold Canyon Golf Resort is located in Pinal County and is therefore subject to the COVID regulations of Pinal County, and not the COVID regulations of Maricopa county.
