Regarding Registration fees: Our first priority for ZFEST is for our members and guests to have a quality experience. Through careful planning and Board approved budgeting, ZFEST also serves as the only revenue-producing activity for ZSCCA outside of membership dues. A successful ZFEST supports ZSCCA operations and makes other events and programs possible.

You should assume that these images will be posted on various social media platforms, and could be used in ZSCCA promotional materials. By registering for this event, you consent to being photographed.
Liability Waiver: As has been the practice for many years, you and your guest (passenger) will be asked to sign the standard ZSCCA liability waiver upon check-in at ZFEST. Attendees cannot participate in any driving or DIY event without signing the waiver.
COVID-19 Precautions and Policy: The State of Colorado has lifted all official restrictions on gatherings. However, the venues that are part of ZFEST 2022 may still have precautions in place, as do some local governments. We ask that you honor those policies to the best of your ability. ZFEST 2022 activities not covered by venue policies are generally conducted outside or in otherwise unrestricted areas. In these situations, we ask that our attendees practice prudent social distancing and facemask use per the latest CDC recommendations. Please respect others' comfort levels and personal space during our time together.
Altitude Sickness
Levels of symptoms of altitude sickness can range from feeling light-headed, fatigue and lack of energy, headache, to nausea. Here are some prevention suggestions to take into consideration:
-
The best way to prevent altitude sickness is to go slow — called acclimatization. This process allows your body time to adjust to the change in oxygen levels. Take your time when traveling up. For instance, spend a day at a point midway up before continuing to ascend.
-
Rest!
-
Stay hydrated. Begin now by drinking 3-4 quarts of water a day.
-
Take it easy with drinking alcohol. Alcohol can dehydrate your body. It also has stronger effects at higher elevations, which can impair judgment.
-
Eat a diet that’s more than 70% carbohydrates.
-
Over-The-Counter medications (ibuprofen) and prescription medications can also help. See your medical provider for more information.
With some planning and precautions, altitude sickness CAN be avoided.
