We plan to hold the next in-person Iron Ring ceremony on November 18th, 2023 at 2pm (14:00) at UVic's Farquhar Auditorium.  This ceremony will be held in accordance with any orders from BC's Public Health Officer (PHO), and may be cancelled if those orders require.

Please note that:

- Masks are optional, and should be worn if you have health concerns.

- With the Farquar Auditorium, and current COVID guidelines, we are able to have guests. Ringed engineers acting as special presenters are also permitted.  Please contact us directly to notify us of your special presenter, as they attend as guests of the Camp

- We will be able to offer ring resizing after the ceremony, but this is very time consuming.  It is imperative that you engage the (typically free) services of a jeweler to measure the pinky-finger of your working hand prior to finalizing your registration  Don't Guess or use the internet!.

- The ceremony may be cancelled due to PHO orders.  In this event, your ceremony registration payment will be fully refunded.
