Age Limits:
Also, in order to preregister for a youth rate, the person registering must be under the age of 18 at the time of the convention, not just when they preregister. If the person turns 18 before the convention (April 30, 2009) they must preregister at an adult rate. Attendees will be asked to show a photo ID with age in order to receive their convention badge.
There is no preregistration fee for children age 12 or under. Children in this age range are welcome at the convention, and will not be charged for admission. However, parents should be aware that Penguicon does not provide any programming or services for children age 12 or under, and will require that all children in this age range are always accompanied by a registered convention attendee. Unaccompanied children will not be permitted into non-public convention areas and functions. Please also consider that some evening and night convention functions may involve topics or dress that may be inappropriate for children. Penguicon can not be held responsible for any unaccompanied minors.
Deadlines:
Please note that if payment is sent by mail, the preregistration form and payment must be postmarked prior to the end of the preregistration period in order to apply the preregistration rate for that period. For instance, if you fill out the preregistration information for one adult on August 23 and mail the payment, the payment must be postmarked no later than October 31 in order to use the $30 per adult rate.

After pre-registration closes on March 31, 2009, the only way to attend Penguicon will be to register at the door. Registration is open 24 hours.
