As I minor (15), who is going to the con without an adult, I know I will need a parental permission form and some kind of ID.
Though, I have a school ID and a state ID, I would perfer to just use one. So, my question is if I need my offical state idea, or as a minor is I can use my school ID.
Anyone know?
-
You can use your school ID. c:
But why would you not want to use your state ID anyway? O3o
-
Sigh. My little brother has a thing for playing with my things.
He took my state ID recently and I've been having trouble finding it. I can of course replace it but, just in case...
-
Wait..you're supposed to have some kind of ID when you go?....then why did I just need my permission form O.O

@Kallika- It's to prove that you're you and you're not, say, picking up someone else's badge, or signing up in someone else's name so they'd have a hassle later. Also, of course, to prove that you're over 13 (or whatever the age limit is x-x). Having your parent/guardian with you with their ID usually works too.
It's weird that you weren't checked, but I've always preregged, so maybe they're more lenient with minor registrations now O-o;
It might be better to wait for a staff response, since I obviously have no idea what I'm talking about. ><

The parental permission form is not proof of identification. It is evidence of parental permission.

Would a Drivers Permit work for ID, or do I actually need my school tag?
Mine was actually taken from me awhile back by some stranger who thought it was funny to take it off my desk and run off. I need to know so that if permits don't count I can buy a reprint of my Student Body Card.

Yes, a drivers permit is government ID so it does count.

IDs in decreasing order of preference:
Well regulated documents:
Passport
Prominent Government ID (Driver's license/permit OR 'state' ID OR Enhanced (state) ID)
Less well regulated photo ID documents:
Student ID (Does this require an adult from the parental permission form with normal ID?)
(Are any other photo ID's allowed?)

Although this wouldn't pertain to minors since they cannot have one, a valid Oregon concealed weapons permit is a legal ID that is permitted as it has all the same information as a driver's license(including photo) & is issued by the state. This would be helpful to someone that is of age, has no driver's license, & needs to prove it(provided they actually have one lol).

With that in mind, even though I don't recall it being specified anywhere, I believe for Kumoricon needs an ID must fulfill a few requirements.
- Issued by a trusted authority (Government of some kind).
- Have a clear photo of the subject to associate person to ID.
- Provide the individual's age.
- Associate the individual's name with a purchase record, full address including name likely required for pickup.
If a concealed weapons permit establishes the above information then it would probably be accepted, though possible with a bit of escalation.

I got in both '08 and '09 with my school ID. No parent ID or anything.

It is a valid ID to purchase alcohol with in this state...so there shouldn't be any issue with it being acceptable. When I recieved mine, I asked the Sheriff's office that question & was told that it can be used as legal ID if no driver's license or state ID is available.
